Ingredients

Scale

Frosting Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup coconut cream (chilled)
  • 1 1/2 cups dairy-free chocolate (such as dairy-free chocolate chips or chopped dairy-free chocolate bars)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the chilled coconut cream and set it aside. Place the dairy-free chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Melt Chocolate: Microwave the chocolate in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Combine and Whisk: Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl with coconut cream. Whisk together vigorously until the mixture becomes thick and glossy.
  4. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least two hours to allow the mixture to thicken further.
  5. Whip the Frosting: Remove the bowl from the refrigerator. Using a stick mixer (immersion blender), beat the firm frosting until it becomes light and fluffy.
  6. Use the Frosting: Spread the frosting over cakes or brownies, or pipe it onto muffins or cupcakes as desired.

Notes

  • Make sure the coconut cream is well chilled to achieve the right thick consistency for the frosting.
  • You can use any dairy-free chocolate chips or bars suitable for melting; check ingredients to ensure they meet your dietary preferences.
  • This frosting needs refrigeration to set properly, so plan to make it ahead of time.
  • Use a stick mixer or hand mixer for best results when whipping the frosting to a light and fluffy texture.
