Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 oz Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Powdered erythritol
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and unsalted butter. Ensure both are at room temperature for easy mixing.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
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.
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.
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.
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.
