• If your cake has a rounded top on it when it comes out of the oven, use your hands, oven mits, or a dish towel to gently press down on the top of the cake to create a flat surface. You need a relatively flat top so that the icing will not run off the sides.
• Place butter, cocoa powder and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; remove from heat. Add the sifted confectioners' sugar and the vanilla extract; beat until smooth.
