TIPS AND TRICKS:
- Your butter should always be room temperature. If you use it when it's too cold it will leave lumps in your buttercream that are hard to remove.
- Never add your milk in all at once!
- Hershey's cocoa is my personal favorite cocoa for this recipe, but you can use whatever cocoa you like.
- If your buttercream has too many air bubbles, turn the mixer to low and let it go for 5 minutes.
