Ingredients
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 cups confectioners' sugar

In a double boiler over hot water melt chocolate with the butter. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes. In an electric mixer add chocolate mixture and confectioners' sugar. Beat until mixture resembles chalky beads. Add the vanilla and the milk 1 tablespoon at a time until a spreadable consistency is reached. Beat until fluffy -- adding more milk if necessary.

This was so easy and turned out delicious. I followed other reviewers' advice and increased the chocolate to 4oz, the butter to 4 TBS, and decreased the powdered sugar to 2 cups.
It's still very sweet but it doesn't overwhelm the chocolate flavor.
My kids loved it!
