Ingredients
- 1/3 cup vegan butter, at room temperature (we like Earth Balance buttery sticks here)
- 1/4 cup Strawberry Puree (~1/2 heaping cup or 80 g of halved, fresh strawberries as recipe is written // blend until smooth)
- 3 ½ - 4 cups organic powdered sugar
Instructions
- Add softened vegan butter to a large mixing bowl and use an electric hand mixer to beat until fluffy — about 1 minute. Add strawberry purée and beat again until fully incorporated, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Begin adding sifted powdered sugar 1/4 cup (28 g) at a time (sifting reduces clumps). Mix on low speed until each 1/4 cup is well incorporated and thick yet spreadable. We found that 3 ½ cups (392 g) was the sweet spot (literally)!
- Spread frosting on a fully cooled strawberry, vanilla, or chocolate cake and enjoy! Use immediately or store frosting in the refrigerator up to 5 days or in the freezer up to 1 month.

Notes
- *Recipe as written makes ~2 cups of frosting. *Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated with the lesser amount of powdered sugar.
