I made some healthier substitutions to one of my favorite frosting recipes. It works great with any cake, cupcake, or cookie. Food coloring can also be added.
Buttercream Frosting
Ingredients
1 stick of Earth Balance Brand Butter softened
5 cups of Powdered Sugar
1 tsp of Vanilla Extract
4-6 tbsp of Almond Milk
Directions
Cream the Butter. Add the Sugar, Vanilla, and Milk. Blend with a hand mixer until it reaches a thick enough consistency. Spread onto cake or cupcakes using a knife or spoon into piping bag and decorate as desired. Makes enough to frost one cake or 24 cupcakes.
