Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) Vegan butter
- 4 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, add the softened vegan butter.
2. Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the vegan butter on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy.
3. Gradually sift in the powdered sugar, about 1 cup at a time, while continuing to beat on low speed to prevent sugar clouds.
4. After all the powdered sugar has been incorporated, increase the mixer speed to medium and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
5. Add the unsweetened non-dairy milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the frosting mixture.
6. Beat on medium-high speed for 1-2 more minutes until the frosting becomes smooth, creamy, and airy. If needed, add ¼ teaspoon more non-dairy milk at a time to adjust the consistency to your liking.
7. Once the frosting reaches your desired texture, stop mixing. It is now ready to use on your favorite desserts. For best results, use immediately or store covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
