Peanut Butter Coconut Frosting


Ingredients: 

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 5 Tbsp Coconut Oil 
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar 

Directions:

  1. In a microwave safe bowl put in your peanut butter, coconut oil, and vanilla. 
  2. With 10-15 second increments, melt the ingredients together. Stirring each time to make sure everything melts smoothly.  
  3. Once it is all melted together add in your powdered sugar and stir. (If it's too thin still, add a little bit more powdered sugar until it's desired consistency). 
Keep in mind this isn't going to be like conventional store bought frosting. The coconut oil moves between solid and liquid form so you'll find if you refrigerate this, it'll get stiff. When it's out for a while it'll get soft. I gave mine a few minutes in the fridge and then spread on brownies.
