Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream Cheese (cold)
- 1 ¼ cup heavy cream (10 ounces)
- ½ cup low carb powdered sugar (or Swerve Confectoners)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla (or your favorite flavoring)
Instructions
- How to powder granulated sweetener: Place ⅓ cup of granulated sweetener (erythritol, xylitol, Sukrin :1 or Swerve Granulated) into a coffee grinder and grind for 10 seconds. Yields ½ cup of powdered sweetener. NOTE: If using plain erythritol or xylitol you may want to add a little stevia glycerite or liquid stevia to the recipe to bump up the sweetness.
Method
- Whip the cold cream cheese until loosened. Add the Sukrin Icing Sugar and vanilla, whipping until incorporated and smooth.
- Adding the heavy cream ¼ cup at a time, slowly incorporate the liquid into the cream cheese and then whip until light and fluffy. It will still be somewhat stiff since the sugar alcohol keeps it cold.
- Spoon into a piping bag (or ziploc bag fitted with a tip) and pipe onto cupcakes or cake.
- Makes 2 ½ cups or enough to very generously decorate 12 cupcakes or to fill and top an 8-inch naked layer cake. (Yields 12 - 3 T to ¼ cup servings)
