Burnt Butter Coconut Frosting
 
 
Author:
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 Tablespoon coconut butter (not coconut oil)
  • ½ cup shredded unsweetened coconut, ground in a coffee grinder
  • ⅓ cup whipping cream (or coconut cream if you are dairy free)
  • 1 teaspoon arrowroot powder
  • 1 teaspoon stevia
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
  1. Prepare and have all of these ingredients ready to go before you start heating up the butter. This frosting goes together quickly and needs all hands on deck so you won’t have enough time to measure and prepare.
  2. Put a small saucepan on the stove on medium-high heat. Add the butter and whisk continuously until the butter starts to brown and take off the heat
  3. Turn the burner to low and whisk the coconut butter until mixed. Next add the shredded coconut (ground in a coffee grinder).
  4. In a small dish stir the arrowroot powder in the heavy cream (or else you will have clumps) and add to the saucepan and continue whisking. Once the butter and cream are combined you can add the almond extract and stevia
  5. You’re frosting is now complete and you can top the cooled cupcakes
  6. Store in the fridge
