So, unfortunately you have "broken" the buttercream and it cannot be saved. You can put buttercream back in the frig, but we recommend taking it out and letting it come back FULLY to room temperature before trying to whip up again. You can just keep it on the counter in an airtight container for a couple days especially if you are going to use it to frost a cake. Also, if I want to make my buttercream chocolate, I would add melted semisweet chocolate instead of cocoa. Hope theses tips help for future batches. JoAnn@KAF
