Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Powdered erythritol (or another low-sugar alternative)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk (or unsweetened almond milk)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, sift the unsweetened cocoa powder to remove any lumps.

Step 2

Add the softened unsalted butter to the bowl and beat with an electric mixer or whisk until creamy and smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the powdered erythritol into the mixture, about 1/4 cup at a time, beating well after each addition to avoid clumps.

Step 4

Mix in the vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of milk. Continue beating the frosting until it becomes light and fluffy.

Step 5

If the frosting is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of milk and mix again until desired consistency is reached.

Step 6

Taste the frosting and adjust sweetness, if necessary, by adding a small amount of additional powdered erythritol.

Step 7

Once fully mixed, use the frosting immediately to decorate your baked goods, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
