List of Ingredients



• 4 eggs yolk with enough milk to equal 1/2 cup
  
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1. Mix eggs and milk, cocoa, coffee powder, vanilla and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter in medium bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add melted chocolate and cocoa mixture; continue to beat until smooth.
   
2. Add confectioners sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating slowly at first, until sugar has been incorporated into the mixture, then at medium speed until frosting is light and fluffy.
