For a richer flavor, use European-style butter. Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for a smooth, lump-free frosting. Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your preferred consistency. Less milk will result in a thicker frosting, while more milk will make it thinner and easier to spread. For a mocha flavor, add 1 teaspoon of instant espresso powder to the cocoa mixture. This frosting can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and re-whip before using.
