Note
This recipe appears to contain ingredients for both a baked good (flour, baking powder) and a no-bake fluff (boiling water, shortening). The directions provided follow the traditional "Chocolate Fluff" no-bake method using the sugar, cocoa, shortening, milk, and butter. The flour, baking powder, and boiling water listed in the ingredients are likely from a different recipe variation or a data error in the source. Do not add flour or baking powder to this no-bake fluff.
For best results, use high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder. Natural cocoa yields a brighter red-brown color, while Dutch-process cocoa yields a darker, milder flavor.
Storage: Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The texture may firm up slightly when cold; let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving to regain fluffiness.
Variation: Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract along with the butter for enhanced flavor.
