Frosting:
i got the new recipe from google but i forgot the save the link huhuhhuhuh im sorry :(((
  1. Put powdered sugar and 3/4 cup cocoa into a food processor. Pulse until blended.
  2.  Drizzle in, until about the consistency of firm butter, several tablespoons of flavoring liquid (water if you aren't looking for flavor beyond the cocoa and butter). To not put in too much liquid, but if you do, add cocoa or sugar. Taste. When the flavor and consistency is right,
  3. add 1 1/2 cup of butter (firm, not cold and not too soft). A good rule of thumb is that both the butter and the sugar mixture should be slightly firmer than you would want it to be to spread it, since the mixing action of the food processor will warm it slightly. Pulse until blended.
