Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Powdered erythritol
- 4 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
Start by softening the unsalted butter. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until it is soft to the touch but not melted.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened butter on medium speed until it becomes creamy and smooth. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually add the powdered erythritol to the butter, continuing to mix on low speed to prevent the sugar from making a mess. Once incorporated, increase the speed to medium-high and continue beating until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 4
Pour in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat the mixture on medium speed until all ingredients are fully integrated and the frosting is creamy.
Step 5
Taste the frosting and, if desired, you can adjust the sweetness by adding a bit more powdered erythritol or enhance the flavor with extra vanilla extract.
Step 6
Once the desired consistency and taste are achieved, the frosting is ready to be used immediately. Spread it over your favorite keto cupcakes or cake, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Step 7
If chilled, let it soften at room temperature for about 15 minutes and give it a quick stir before spreading.
