Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and vegan butter. Make sure both are at room temperature for easier mixing.
Using an electric mixer at medium speed, beat together the peanut butter and vegan butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Add in the vanilla extract and almond milk, and continue to beat the mixture for another minute until fully combined.
Gradually add the powdered sugar to the bowl, about 1/2 cup at a time, beating on low speed to incorporate and then increasing to medium speed. This helps prevent the sugar from creating a mess.
Once all the powdered sugar has been added, increase the mixer speed to high and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy, approximately 2 to 3 more minutes.
If the frosting is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of almond milk to reach the desired consistency. If it's too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.
Add a pinch of salt and beat briefly to incorporate.
Use immediately to frost your cakes or cupcakes, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. If stored, bring to room temperature and beat again before using.
