Ingredients

  • 1 cups (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 3½ cups confectioner's sugar (possibly a little more)
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ cup very strong brewed coffee

Directions

  1. Combine butter, confectioner's sugar, cocoa, vanilla, and coffee in a medium-large bowl, mixing slowly until everything is moistened.
  2. Beat at high speed with an electric mixer until uniform and fluffy.
  3. If it seems a little too wet to spread, you can beat in up to ½ cup additional confectioner's sugar.
