Brilliant, quick and very tasty, I used a bit more cocoa powder (about half a tablespoon more) because I like it dark . Yummm!

Method
Place Chelsea Icing Sugar and cocoa powder in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add softened butter and pour some of the hot water over the top.
Mix together with a knife or spatula, adding more water as required to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
Use to ice muffins, cakes or desserts.
