- Add powdered sugar and cocoa powder, then mix again until smooth.
- Add vanilla and a pinch of salt, mixing until combined.
- Fold in the whipped topping or whipped cream to achieve a fluffy texture.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate intensity, if desired.
- Chill for 20 to 30 minutes if possible, although it can be served immediately.
Notes
If using flour in your version of the recipe, ensure it is heat treated for safety. To do this, spread flour on a baking sheet and briefly bake then cool.
