I love, love, love when they are clean.
I hate, hate, hate to clean them.
Seriously hate to do dishes. I would rather scrub toilets.
In an effort to minimize my dishes after making this, I had the grand idea of just mixing my sugar and cocoa and not sifting it.
Don't be like me.
I got it all in a bowl and started stirring. There were little balls-o-ingredient in the mixture. Not the fine mixture I should be using.
So, I cave, I grab the sifter.
In trying to get everything from the bowl to the sifter I made a mess like you only read about. My counter, my nearby appliances, my shirt....covered.
I repeat, don't be like me.
Just do it right to begin with. I tried to outsmart the system and made a bigger mess for myself.

3 Cups confectioners’ sugar
¾ Cup unsweetened cocoa powder
