For an extra-rich flavor, use European-style butter. Sifting the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder is crucial for a smooth, professional-looking icing. Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your preferred consistency; a thicker icing is ideal for piping, while a thinner icing is great for a smooth glaze. Ensure your cake is completely cooled before icing to prevent the frosting from melting.
