There's a recipe for this!I just use a cup of icing sugar, couple of Tbsps of cocoa and enough hot water to make it to the consistency I want/need

I use sifted icing sugar and cocoa and a small knob of butter, then add boiled water to get the right consistency.

I second cookessentials. I also use this recipe, adding some dark cooking melts, to make a scrummy fudgy sauce for icecream! Made in seconds, in the microwave! (to melt the butter and melts into the mixture)

How big is the cake you want to ice! A cup of icing sugar is going to make a reasonable quantity.
