3 Ingredient, Vegan Chocolate Frosting

Vegan | Paleo | Gluten-Free

Course Dessert
Servings 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil solid form
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup*
  • 2 pinches sea salt

Instructions

  1. Using coconut oil that is at room temperature and soft, but solid form, mix everything together using a mini spatula, fork or spoon.  Yes, it's that easy!

  2. Pipe through a piping bag or plastic sandwich bag.

  3. Store leftover frosting in an airtight container with a fitted lid in the fridge for 2 – 3 weeks.

  4. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

*If using maple syrup, make sure it is at room temperature and not straight from the fridge. Otherwise, the cold liquid will harden the coconut oil.

**Because the base of this frosting is coconut oil, it will harden up in the fridge.  If you are frosting a cake or cupcake the day before and storing in a fridge overnight, i suggest removing your cake/cupcake about 2 hours before serving.

***leftover frosting can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge, but again, you'll want to get it to room temperature before using!
