Chocolate icing?

[Arimeh]

Yup I'm dumb - how do you make it from scratch?

I have cocoa and icing sugar... now where do I go from here?

I need to cover up my dry crappy chocolate cake I made earlier - so thought I could have chocolate icing with sprinkles and it would be edible... lol

You can either add a little water to icing sugar and cocoa or Butter works good, a bit more like ganache.... yuuuum...

Do you have cooking choc and some cream???

About 80 g melted choc and 2 Tbs cream, mix together about 4 min.. makes a great choc ganache....

I do the cocoa powder, icing sugar and a bit of milk (milk that Em can have) and make it as thick as I can.

Ahhh ok
PB - nah no cream used here - doesn't agree with mummy's belly

I'll try it with milk and see how I go.. wish me luck

I do 1 cup icing sugar with 1/2 cup cocoa and butter/nuttlex. If that is too thick, I add a drop or two of water in it until it is the consistency I want.
