Ingredients

  • 1 cup full fat canned coconut milk the hardened part on top
  • 1 ½ cups sugar free chocolate chips

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, open coconut milk cans. Scoop out the hardened part on top and set aside the liquid part.
  2. Add the hardened milk to a large microwave safe dish. Add in chocolate chips.
  3. Microwave in 30 second increments, stopping to stir between each increment. Microwave until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Then, place bowl in fridge. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 4 hours. The longer it chills, the thicker it will be.
  5. After chilling, remove bowl from fridge. Use hand mixer to whip frosting until fluffy.
  6. Finally, transfer to piping bag or use knife to begin frosting cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and more.

Notes

  • Use only the hardened part of the canned coconut milk.  Alternatively, use canned coconut cream which contains only the thick hardened part.
  • Use leftover coconut milk liquid in smoothies and sauces if desired.
  • For Keto, use sugar free chocolate chips.
  • Stop and stir between each microwave increment to prevent burning.  Mine only took two 30 second increments.
  • The longer this frosting chills, the thicker it will become.
  • Use stand mixer to whip frosting until fluffy.  A handheld whisk or spoon is not strong enough.  This frosting is rich and thick!
  • Store leftovers in fridge.  Allow frosting to thaw at room temperature until creamy enough to spread.
