You will need to be sure that the chocolate that you use does not already contain vanilla. The ingredient label should tell you. Most Baking Chocolate ("100%") does not contain vanilla. Then use any recipe and leave out the vanilla if it is called for. The quantity is so small that it should have no effect on how the frosting turns out. Cocoa powder almost never contains vanilla, so a recipe based on cocoa powder without added vanilla will also be fine.

∙ 14y agoMix powdered sugar with a TINY bit of warm water (a little goes a LONG way!). You can add some cream of tartar and beat it, too, if you would like, with some egg whites to make it thicker and harder. Also, you can add in other flavoring (fruit, fruit juice, peppermint oil, lavender oil, almond extract, ect.) or some foor coloring.

∙ 10y agoYes, but you would have to use fresh vanilla beans to create the same or even better flavor. Vanilla beans may or may not be in your local grocery store, depending on where you live. Hope I helped! :)

∙ 14y agoYou cannot make real chocolate icing without using chocolate of some sort. You can, however, make chocolate icing with cocoa, which is the basis of all chocolate, along with butter and sugar.
You can also make imitation chocolate icing by incorporating artificial "chocolate" flavor and brown coloring.
Carob is another product that is sometimes substituted for chocolate. Some people think the taste is similar, and it does not cause problems for anyone allergic to cocoa and chocolate.

What is a substitute for vanilla extract when frosting a cupcake?
I have used rum extract, almond extract, anise extract, and a bit of whiskey or vodka, or nothing at all, in place of vanilla in many different recipes including frosting. All without substantially causing a failure in the recipe. [The peppermint frosting went on chocolate cupcakes.] The vanilla is only to give the frosting a flavor other than just bland. Experiment at will.
