Time 15m

Yield 18 cupcakes, 18-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/3 cup margarine (I use Earth Balance Buttery Original, but use whatever animal-free brand you like)
4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3-1/2 cup strong coffee, cold (see note)

Steps:

  • For the coffee: I just use a bit of instant and brew it about double or triple strength.
  • For best results, pre-measure the ingredients. You can pour the vanilla in with the coffee.
  • Place the vegan butter sub in a med-large mixing bowl; set hand mixer on low speed and beat till 'fluffy' (whippy is more like the right word here).
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. You can also begin to add dribbles of coffee as needed to moisten.
  • Continue until it has reached your desired consistency; should be light and fluffy. Frost your cupcakes/cake/biscuits and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature. This will help it cream together with the sugar easily.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar. This will help prevent the frosting from becoming too runny.
  • Beat the frosting until it is light and fluffy. This will take several minutes.
  • Add flavorings as desired. Vanilla extract, almond extract, and chocolate chips are all popular options.
  • Use the frosting immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use.
