Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons almond milk
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, add the creamy peanut butter and vegan butter. Both should be at room temperature to ensure easy mixing.
Step 2
Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, beat the peanut butter and vegan butter together on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and continue mixing for another minute until well incorporated.
Step 4
Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing on low speed to prevent a sugar dust cloud. Once combined, increase the speed to medium-high and mix until the icing is thick and smooth.
Step 5
Pour in the almond milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. The icing should be thick but spreadable.
Step 6
Add a pinch of salt and mix briefly to evenly distribute the flavor.
Step 7
Use the icing immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or cookies. If not using immediately, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Let it sit at room temperature and re-whip before using if stored.
