Stir until smooth and set aside.
Place 2 cups sugar, 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large mixing bowl and stir until well-blended.
Stir ½ cup additional butter into cocoa mixture and add cocoa mixture to dry ingredients.
Use an electric mixer on medium speed to blend.
