This frosting whips up silky and deep in chocolate flavor, thanks to melted chopped chocolate blended right into a fluffy whipped base. Cocoa powder deepens the color and flavor, while sifted powdered sugar keeps the texture smooth instead of grainy. A touch of vanilla and a pinch of salt round out the sweetness so it never tastes flat or one-note. Once beaten to soft peaks, it spreads like a dream over cupcakes, layer cakes, or brownies, holding its shape beautifully. It's an easy one to reach for anytime you need a rich, glossy frosting that fits into a lactose free kitchen without any fuss.

Place the chopped dairy free chocolate in a small saucepan over the lowest heat setting, stirring constantly, until just melted and smooth, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool for 10 minutes, until no longer warm to the touch.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened dairy free butter with a stand mixer or hand mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
