Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the unsalted butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing on low speed until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Step 3
Add the cocoa powder and mix on medium speed until fully incorporated and smooth.
Step 4
Slowly pour in the milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing between additions until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract and mix for another 30 seconds to combine.
Step 6
Gently fold in the marshmallow creme using a spatula until the mixture is light and fluffy. Avoid overmixing to maintain the airy texture.
Step 7
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or other baked goods. If not using right away, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 hours.
