Ingredients
- 2 cups Powdered sugar
- 0.3333 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Brewed coffee (cooled)
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder to remove any lumps.
Step 2
Add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and salt to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or spoon until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Step 3
Gradually add the cooled brewed coffee, 1 tablespoon at a time, while stirring continuously. Adjust the consistency to your liking—use less liquid for a thicker frosting or more for a thinner spread.
Step 4
Once the frosting is smooth and creamy, taste and adjust sweetness or cocoa levels, if needed, by adding more powdered sugar or cocoa powder in small increments.
Step 5
Spread the frosting evenly over your Crazy Cake or any other baked goods of choice. Use a spatula or knife to create swirls and peaks for extra texture and visual appeal.
Step 6
Allow the frosting to set for 10-15 minutes before serving for best results.
