Coffee Mocha Buttercream

Light on the cocoa, with a little coffee fix!

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, at room temperature
2  1/2 cups icing sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1  1/2 tbsps strong brewed coffee, cooled
1 tsp cocoa powder

Cube the butter and beat in a mixer until smooth.
Gradually add the icing sugar and beat until fully combined.
Add the vanilla extract and the coffee, again a little at a time so that the butter mixture can easily absorb the liquid.

Makes enough frosting for a 2-layer 8" round cake.

This one was a chocolate fudge cake which complimented the buttery frosting perfectly!
