I tried making chocolate buttercream for the first time, it tasted good but was a bit dry. I think I’ll try a different recipe next time. I’m not great at baking but I always try to do homemade cakes for my kiddos birthdays 🤎

It looks FANTASTIC, and I can tell just by looking that it was very tasty, too.
That little smile is worth everything. 🙂
If it was a simple American buttercream recipe using cocoa powder, yes, sometimes they can get a touch dry, and sometimes even if you’re spot on with your measurements, it can even vary based on the humidity in your kitchen, etc.
It’s a very easy fix, though; just add tiny splashes of whatever liquid you used for the recipe and/or whatever you have available to you (even a tiny splash of water will help make the buttercream less dry and it won’t hurt the texture or flavor if you don’t go overboard).

Your son and that cake are adorable. If you ever want to try again for a moist chocolate cake, I loved this Brooklyn blackout cake (the middle layer is chocolate pudding–not sure if your kiddo likes pudding). https://ashbaber.com/brooklyn-blackout-cake/
