Keto Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe – Easy Low Carb Sugar Free Icing for cake, cupcakes, brownies or cookies – with the video tutorial.
Keto Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting
This Keto Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting makes a sweet, decadent topping for low carb cakes, cupcakes, brownies or to sandwich keto cookies together.
Keto Powdered Sugar – the trick to super smooth icing is using powdered or icing sugar. Thankfully a keto friendly version is easy to find on Amazon. (Find it here.)
Take the cream cheese and butter out of the fridge a few hours before needed, so that it’s perfectly soft and ready for whipping.
It’s up to you how sweet or dark to make your frosting, start with a smaller amount of keto sugar and cocoa powder and then add more of one or the other until you have the perfect chocolate frosting for you.
Keto Chocolate Frosting Recipe
- 100g/3.5oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 50g Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2-4 Tablespoons Keto Powdered Sugar
- 1-2 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
- Place the softened cream cheese and butter in a large bowl, then, using electric beaters, whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Add the vanilla and whisk in.
- Add the keto sugar and whisk in until fully combined.
- Add the cocoa powder and whisk one last time until smooth and creamy. You can have a quick taste of the frosting and add more cocoa powder or keto sugar, depending on the chocolate/sweetness ratio you’re after.
- Use straight away or place in the fridge for a few hours to harden, if need be. Store in the fridge, ideally in a sealed container, and enjoy within 4 to 5 days.
