Easy Non-Dairy Cream Cheese Frosting
Description
The Easy Non-Dairy Cream Cheese Frosting blends vegan cream cheese with creamed honey for sweetness. Creamed honey provides a better texture to hold piping shapes compared to regular honey, which can thin the frosting. Whipping until smooth, the frosting can be tinted with beet crystal or other food dyes for color. The result is a creamy, slightly sweet topping that suits dairy-free diets.
The frosting works well as a spread on baked goods or for piping decorations. When refrigerated, it firms up somewhat and can be softened by letting it sit at room temperature briefly before use. Adding vanilla extract can enhance flavor, especially when omitting sugar to make it sugar-free. Powdered sugar may also be added as desired to adjust sweetness and consistency.
Ingredients
- 1 cup vegan cream cheese softened
- 2 tbs creamed honey
- 1 teaspoon beet crystals or other dye
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl add the cream cheese and honey.
- Whip with a handheld blender until smooth.
- Add in the color and whip again.
- Pipe immediatly or store in the fridge.
- Makes 5-6 cupcakes worth.
Notes
- Use creamed honey instead of regular honey to ensure a better texture and consistency for piping.
- Let refrigerated frosting sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before piping, as it firms when chilled.
- For a sugar-free option, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance flavor.
- Optional powdered sugar can be added to increase sweetness and thickness based on preference.
- Beet crystals or other dyes can be used for coloring; nutritional values do not include dye ingredients.
