Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup cocoa powder

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my frosting turned out grainy. It was still tasty, but not as smooth as I would have liked.

This frosting was a disaster! It was too runny and didn't hold its shape at all. I had to add a lot of extra powdered sugar to get it to the right consistency.

This frosting is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

Easy to make and delicious! I added a bit of espresso powder to the frosting for a mocha flavor and it was divine.

This was my first time making American buttercream and it turned out perfectly! I used semisweet chocolate chips and the flavor was rich and decadent. I also loved the smooth and creamy texture.
