In a large mixing bowl, add the softened unsalted butter and natural creamy peanut butter.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and peanut butter together until well combined and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the mixture, and continue to beat for another 30 seconds to incorporate the flavorings.
Gradually add the powdered erythritol to the bowl, about 1/4 cup at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition. This ensures a smooth consistency and no clumps.
Once all the erythritol is combined, increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat for an additional 1-2 minutes until the icing is light and fluffy.
If the icing is too thick, add unsweetened almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, beating until you reach your desired consistency. The icing should be creamy yet spreadable.
Taste the icing and adjust the sweetness according to your preference by adding a bit more powdered erythritol if needed, beating well after each addition.
Your sugar-free creamy peanut butter icing is now ready to use. Spread it generously over cakes, cupcakes, or any dessert of your choice for a delectable, guilt-free treat.
