Preparation
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together butter and shortening. Sift powdered sugar and cocoa together. Gradually add to creamed mixture. When combined, turn mixer to high. Whip until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Don’t skimp on the whipping.
Note: A stationary mixer works a bit better than a hand held mixer for this recipe.
