Chocolate Buttercream Frosting

Yields1 Serving

Few foods elicit guilty pleasure like licking the remnants of something sweet and gooey left in a mixing bowl.

 1 cup vegan butter substitute (like Earth Balance)
 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
 ¼ cup cocoa powder
 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
 ½ cup vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted*
 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk
1

With a stand or hand blender, beat vegan butter until light and creamy. Slowly add in the powdered sugar and blend till combined. Add in cocoa powder, vanilla and melted chocolate chips. Blend to combine and add non-dairy milk a little at a time to achieve soft, spreadable consistency. (*Melt chocolate chips in a microwave or in a double-boiler, then let cool slightly before using.)
