1- Microwave chocolate in small microwavable bowl as directed on package until melted. Cool 10 minutes.
2- Beat powdered sugar, butter, vanilla and milk in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Gradually beat in melted chocolate until well blended.
3- Immediately frost cake. Frosting will begin to set up after about 15 minutes.
**Generously frosts a 13 x 9-inch cake, or fills and frosts an 8- or 9-inch two-layer cake.**
Creamy Cocoa Frosting: Substitute 1/2 cup baking cocoa for the chocolate.
Creamy Mocha Frosting: Stir 2 1/2 teaspoons instant coffee (dry) into the milk.
Betty's Tip If the frosting is too thick, beat in a little more milk, a few drops at a time. If frosting is too thin, beat in a small amount of powdered sugar until it is easy to spread.
