Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1.5 cups Powdered erythritol (or your preferred powdered sugar substitute)
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Heavy cream
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and cream cheese.
Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and cream cheese on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the powdered erythritol to the mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure everything is well-incorporated.
Add the vanilla extract, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt to the mixture.
Continue to beat on high speed for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the frosting is light, fluffy, and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Taste the frosting and adjust the sweetness or consistency if necessary. You can add an extra splash of heavy cream for a softer texture or a bit more powdered erythritol for added sweetness.
Use immediately to frost your favorite cake, cupcakes, or cookies, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
