Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
"A good chocolate buttercream frosting is airy, fluffy, rich, and doesn't go overboard on the ingredients. Butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and heavy cream are whipped in a mixer bowl leaving you with incredibly smooth and decadent chocolate frosting. Rich and creamy 5-ingredient chocolate buttercream frosting is a classic for piping and decorating a plethora of sweet treats, and it comes together in just 10 minutes! Just like our classic vanilla buttercream frosting, this chocolate version is a true staple for baked goods. "
