This frosting can be used on the cake of your choice. The recipe makes 1 1/2 cups, enough to frost the top of a tube cake and bundt cake.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 large marshmallows
  • 4 tablespoons butter, (1/2 stick)
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Cooking Directions

    Sift the sugar and cocoa powder together into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

    Place the marshmallows, butter and milk in a medium-size heavy saucepan over low heat. Stir until the marshmallows are melted, three to four minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Pour the confectioners' sugar and cocoa mixture over the marshmallow mixture. Add the vanilla and stir until the frosting is smooth and satiny.

    Use at once to frost the top of the cake of your choice.
