Ingredients

⅓ cup vegan butter (we use Earth Balance Soy Free Buttery Spread)
⅔ cup cocoa
⅓ cup carton coconut milk or other milk of choice
2 tsp vanilla
2 ½ cups powdered sugar

Instructions

In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Slowly add cocoa until smooth and thoroughly mixed.
Place mixture into medium-sized bowl and add coconut milk and sugar. Stir with whisk or rubber spatula until smooth.
Slowly add powdered sugar while continually mixing until smooth. Add a little more powdered sugar if frosting is too thin or a little more coconut milk if too thick.
Using a beater or mixer speeds up the mixing process, but is not required for this luscious frosting! Store frosting (or frosted cake) in refrigerator and remove about 30 minutes prior to serving.
