Step 1

Preparation: Ensure the dairy-free butter is at room temperature.

Step 2

Mixing the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, combine the dairy-free butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and 3 tablespoons of dairy-free milk. Use an electric mixer to mix until smooth and creamy. If the frosting is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of dairy-free milk at a time until it reaches the desired consistency. If the frosting is too soft, gradually add more powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, until it becomes firm enough to spread onto the cake.

Step 3

Frosting the Cake: Once the cake is cooled, frost with your heart to your desired thickness

Step 4

Serving: Slice and serve the cake, and enjoy the rich, chocolatey flavor of the dairy-free buttercream frosting!
