In a medium heavy saucepan mix together:
1/2 C. unsweetened cocoa powder
4 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 & 1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tesp. salt
gradually add 2 cups milk - whisking well
Cook over medium-high until thick like pudding, stirring consistently. *Be careful NOT to overcook or it will lose thickness!
remove from heat
add 1 Tbsp. butter and 2 tesp. vanilla
whisk together well
cool completely before icing cake
This is a family favorite for baby birthday cakes. It stays ooey-gooey and is perfect for little ones to dig in and make a big mess! Plus its the yummiest homemade icing you'll ever taste. It's very similar to ganache.
