Ingredients
- 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate chopped
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 3 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2/3 cup powdered kept friendly sweetener like swerve
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream room temperature
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 ounces chopped unsweetened baking chocolate and 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool until just lukewarm.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat ½ cup softened butter and 3 ounces softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add ⅔ cup powdered keto-friendly sweetener and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Beat until fully combined.
- Mix in the melted chocolate mixture and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. The frosting will be thick at this stage.
- Gradually add ½ cup room-temperature heavy whipping cream, a few tablespoons at a time, beating after each addition until the frosting reaches a smooth, spreadable or pipeable consistency. You may not need all of the cream depending on the brand of ingredients used.
- Use immediately to frost your favorite keto-friendly cake or cupcakes, or refrigerate until ready to use. If chilled, let the frosting sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes and stir before spreading or piping.
