This week I made a dark chocolate layer cake with coconut frosting. The cake itself was good but not GREAT (which is why I am going to tweak the recipe a bit and try again before I post it) but the frosting was to die for. So I thought I'd go ahead and post this recipe - it would be great on cupcakes or cake or cookie sandwiches or... in low moments... just by itself. :)
Best Coconut Frosting EVER
Ingredients:
-3 cups powdered sugar
-1 cup coconut oil (unrefined, meaning it is solid at room temperature)
-1 tsp. vanilla
-2-6 tbsp. coconut milk
Method:
Using a hand mixer, mix the coconut oil in a large bowl until it's smooth. Then, in 1/2 cup increments, add 1 full cup of powdered sugar while mixing on low speed. You might need to slowly turn the speed of the mixer up to fully blend once you're confident the powder won't go everywhere. Then add 1 tbsp. of the coconut milk and the vanilla, and keep blending. Continue to add the sugar slowly, alternating with 1 tbsp. coconut milk at a time, until the consistency is how you like it.
