Step 1

In a large bowl or stand mixer, add the butter and the vanilla extract, then sift in the cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve. Beat the ingredients together until a smooth paste has formed.

Step 2

Begin to add the powdered sugar to the mixing bowl, about ½ cup at a time, making sure to sieve it to get rid of any lumps. Beat slowly at first, then gradually increase the speed as the sugar incorporates.

Step 3

When roughly half of the sugar has been incorporated, add the cooled coffee to the bowl and mix it in.

Step 4

Gradually beat in the remaining sugar and then, if the buttercream is a little stiff, add a splash of the milk to moisten the consistency. The frosting should be smooth and glossy.

Step 5

Pipe the frosting onto cupcakes, cakes, or use as desired
