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!

VEGAN BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Super yummy frosting that is completely free of animal products! Yay! My husband and kiddo love it, and I am sure it will be a hit with your family and friends. Don't tell them it's vegan until after they try it, and they will be pleasantly surprised. The longer you beat the mixture, the more air is incorporated, and you'll get a fluffier frosting.

VEGAN FLUFFY BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

This is our all-purpose "go to" frosting. It's great for piping into lush, swirling mountains of frostiness and just as good for spreading onto a cupcake like rolling hills of heaven. It make a lot, probably 4 cups' worth, so you can halve the recipe if you are going to be spreading the frosting rather than piping it.

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup nonhydrogenated shortening
1/2 cup nonhydrogenated margarine (we use Earth Balance)
3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted if clumpy
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup plain soy milk or soy creamer

Steps:

  • Beat the shortening and margarine together until well combined and fluffy. Add the sugar and beat for about 3 more minutes. Add the vanilla and soy milk, beat for another 5-7 minutes until fluffy.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality vegan butter that is firm and cold. This will help the frosting to whip up light and fluffy.
  • Make sure the vegan butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start making the frosting. This will help them to mix together smoothly.
  • If you want a sweeter frosting, add more powdered sugar. If you want a less sweet frosting, add less powdered sugar.
  • You can flavor the frosting with any extract you like. Some popular options include vanilla, almond, and coconut.
  • If you want a colored frosting, add a few drops of food coloring. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach the desired color.
  • The frosting can be used to frost cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. It can also be used as a filling for pastries and sandwiches.

Conclusion:

Vegan coffee buttercream frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used to add a touch of sweetness and flavor to any dessert. It is easy to make and can be customized to suit your own taste. Whether you are a vegan or not, you are sure to enjoy this delicious frosting.
