If you need an easy and simple dairy free, refined sugar free, and vegan icing recipe, this is it.  This recipe is ready in less than 5 minutes and can be used to top any cupcakes or cookies as either an icing or frosting.  It is best to make and use immediately!

For this recipe, you will need:

Coconut Butter: I used Artisana Organics, but any will work, just check the ingredient label

Coconut Oil: make sure you use unrefined and virgin as it’s not processed and that you melt it before adding it to the recipe

Maple Syrup: it’s best to use pure maple syrup for best flavor and to be the most nutrient dense and cleanest option

Tips:

  • If you are going to make this in advance and store it in the refrigerator, remove it from the refrigerator and let it sit out at room temperature for 15-20 minutes in order to soften
  • It is best to make this recipe and use it immediately
  • Make sure to warm up your coconut butter for 30 seconds in the microwave as it can harden while being stored in your pantry
