1. Place a saucepan of water on the hob to melt the chocolate, place a heatproof glass bowl over the simmering water and place the chocolate (broken into squares) in the bowl. Stir it occasionally. Once fully melted remove completely from the heat and the saucepan, and leave to cool slightly.
2. In a large bowl, beat the butter, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract together until smooth, you can use an electric whisk to speed along the process, although I prefer to use a spoon :)
3. Add the melted chocolate and beat again until thick and creamy. Continue to beat the mixture until you get a thick consistency.
