This Vegan Frosting is creamy, delightful, and incredibly easy to make!
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Hand Mixer
- Spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Storage container
Ingredients
- 4 ounces vegan cream cheese look for brands that have a smooth texture
- 1 tablespoon vegan butter slightly softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar sifted if lumpy
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract for flavor enhancement
Instructions
- In your mixing bowl, combine the vegan cream cheese and vegan butter. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add the pure vanilla extract and mix for another 30 seconds to fully incorporate.
- Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating on low speed initially, then medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Adjust thickness by adding more powdered sugar as needed.
- Taste your frosting and adjust sweetness or flavor by adding more powdered sugar or vanilla extract if desired.
- Use a spatula or piping bag to frost your favorite desserts.
Notes
- Store leftover frosting in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- If using silken tofu instead of cream cheese, blend until smooth for a similar texture.
- For a stiffer frosting, gradually add more powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached.
