Peppermint frosting

This works great with any cupcake, especially chocolate-y ones. Also good on brownies….yum…

ingredients:
6 Tablespoons butter
3 cups powdered sugar
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons peppermint extract

Cream the butter and the sugar, CAREFULLY. Nothing like white flecks everywhere to ruin your black shirt. Just sayin’.

Add in the cocoa powder, alternating with the milk. Sometimes I need a little more milk, you decide. Finally add the peppermint extract, turn speed to high until the frosting is nice and fluffy!
