INSTRUCTIONS
Dissolve the cocoa in the boiling water, making a paste. Cream the
fat to soften it, then add the icing sugar and beat really well until
the mixture becomes pale in colour and light in texture. (An electric
mixer is helpful). Mix in the cooled cocoa.
Additional flavouring of vanilla or peppermint essence, dissolved
instant coffee or the finely grated rind of half an orange may be
added.
Store in a covered container in the refrigerator or freezer. The
quantity of butter icing given in the recipes refers to the weight of
butter and sugar added together.
This recipe makes enough butter icing to fill and decorate a 20cm (8
inch) sponge cake.

essence to make lemon butter icing.
