This is the perfect recipe for Sugar Free Buttercream Frosting that you can use for that next batch of cupcakes or yummy cake. This recipe is low in carbs and keto friendly.
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 3 cups Sugar Free Powdered Sugar
- 1 cup Butter -softened to room temperature.
- 1 tbsp Milk can use Cream, Whipping Cream, or similar dairy- 1 tablespoon (can use up to 2 tablespoons if you want a more fluid frosting to work with).
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- I recommend using standing mixer if you have one. Also, fit the mixer with a whisk attachment.
- Cream together the sugar free powdered sugar and the butter by mixing on low for one minute. Once these appear to be somewhat blended you can increase the speed to medium to get a more whipped texture. It should take about 2 ½- 3 minutes to get a good texture.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl by hand and then add the milk (or alternative)and the vanilla. Start with 1 tablespoon of the milk and add more as needed. Continue to mix on medium for 1- 1 ½ minutes or until you get that desired consistency.
