Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 3 cups

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup vegan butter
  • 1 cup vegan cream cheese
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix the butter and the vegan cream cheese, both at room temperature. Beat on medium low until creamy and well combined. 
  • Reduce the mixer speed and add the powdered sugar. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, then increase the mixer speed and beat for 2 more minutes or until the frosting is smooth.
  • For a thicker frosting, add an extra ½ cup of powdered sugar. For a thinner consistency, add more cream cheese or some vegan milk.
  • Chill the frosting for two hours to firm before using it. You can use it straight away but if you leave it in the fridge for a while, it will thicken and will be firmer to decorate your cakes.
