Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 oz Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Powdered erythritol
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and unsalted butter. Ensure both are at room temperature for easy mixing.
Step 2
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually add the powdered erythritol, about 1/4 cup at a time, mixing well between additions. Continue until all the erythritol is well integrated and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and heavy cream to the mixture. Beat on medium speed for another 2 minutes to ensure everything is well combined and the icing reaches a fluffy consistency.
Step 5
Once the icing is smooth and creamy, taste it and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding a small amount of powdered erythritol or vanilla extract according to your preference.
Step 6
Use the Keto Cream Cheese Icing immediately to frost your desserts or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before using.
