Directions
Step 1
Ensure the coconut oil is at room temperature, resembling a firm but manageable consistency, not melted.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the coconut oil until it's fluffy and smooth.
Step 3
Gradually add the maple syrup to the whipped coconut oil while continuing to mix at a medium speed.
Step 4
Once the maple syrup is fully incorporated, add the vanilla extract, arrowroot powder, almond milk, and salt.
Step 5
Increase the mixing speed to high and beat the mixture until you achieve a creamy and smooth texture, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
