Easy Gluten Free Vegan Frosting Recipe

Looking for a gluten free and vegan frosting recipe that is only 4 ingredients and super easy to make? This recipe makes enough frosting for about 18 sugar cookies. You'll want to double the recipe if frosting a cake or cupcakes.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Course Dessert
Servings 18 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Earth Balance Soy Free Buttery Spread Butter
  • 2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 3/4 tsp Vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Hand Mixer or Stand Mixer works the best, we prefer using our stand mixer.
  • Cream the vegan butter in the bowl of the stand mixer or using a hand mixer, on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • Using a sifter, sift the powdered sugar over the bowl with the creamed vegan butter.
  • Beat sifted sugar and vegan butter to combine.
  • Add in almond milk and vanilla, then mix again.
  • If you want it to be thinner you can add more milk, just a little at a time.
  • Once it's to the consistency you'd like, you're done and ready to frost!
  • Use the frosting within 3 days stored at room temp or store in fridge for a couple of weeks. If you store in the fridge before frosting cookies, a cake, or cupcakes you'll want to take it out of the fridge to let it soften up a bit before using it.
  • This recipe makes enough frosting for about 18 sugar cookies. You'll want to double the recipe if frosting a cake or cupcakes.

Notes

This recipe will work for a batch of sugar cookies though you'll want to double it if you want to frost a cake or cupcakes. We've used this recipe on cookies, a gingerbread house, cake, cupcakes, basically anything that could ever need frosting. It's simple and delicious!!
