Keto Vanilla and Chocolate Frosting
This is a recipe for keto frosting. I personally love any frosting and with this recipe, you can make either chocolate, vanilla, or both just by what you add to the recipe.
Ingredients
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 3 oz. cream cheese softened
- 6 Tbsp. butter softened
- ½ Tbsp. liquid stevia or to taste
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract for vanilla frosting
- 2 Tbsp. dark cocoa powder for chocolate frosting
Instructions
-
Add softened butter and cream cheese into a bowl. Mix together with an electric mixer until smooth.
-
In another bowl, mix heavy cream until it is formed into whipped cream.
-
Add the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
-
Add stevia and blend all together.
-
If you are making chocolate frosting follow the next step. If you are making vanilla just add vanilla extract and skip the next step.
-
Put in cocoa powder and mix until fully incorporated.
-
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
-
***If you find the frosting too soft, put it in the refrigerator for a bit. If you need to use it right away you can add a pinch of xanthan gum to firm it up.***
-
Yield: 1 1/2 cups for vanilla frosting and 1 1/4 cups for chocolate frosting.
