Chocolate Buttercream Frosting Shots

I was reading a feature in our paper on frosting shots- yes, frosting shots! Apparently in some cities this is catching on quite fast. I clipped this recipe and have been moving it from here to there for a month. I thought i better post it for safe keeping. I personally would use this on a chocolate cake, but for the brave, pipe into small paper souffle cups and toss it back like a shot! I was able to frost a 9x13 cake and i believe this would be enough to frost 24 cupcakes or as the article stated, 30 frosting shots.

Steps

In a large bowl , combine the butter , marshmallow cream , salt and vanilla.
Using an electric mixer , beat on high until well mixed.
Beat in the cocoa powder on low speed just until incorporated.
Add the powdered sugar and mix on low just until incorporated , scraping the sides of bowl as needed.
If frosting is too thick you can add in milk or cream a teaspoon at a time until desired consistency.
Frosting can be refrigerated , but bring to room temperature for about 10-15 minutes before using.
