Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 to 3 tbsp whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Beat the butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  2. With the mixer on low, slowly add the powdered sugar, 2 tbsp milk, vanilla, and salt. Beat on medium until smooth and spreadable, about 1 minute. Add another tablespoon of milk if it’s too stiff.
  3. Fold in the mini chocolate chips by hand and use right away.

Notes

This icing sets slightly as it sits. For the fluffiest texture, spread it as soon as you make it. If you refrigerate it, let it come to cool room temperature and give it a quick whip before using.
