Notes
- Want a chocolate buttercream frosting? Simply add in ½ cup of sifted cocoa powder when you add in the powdered sweetener. If you frosting becomes too thick, add in a little more heavy cream until it becomes the consistency you like.
- Lakanto Powdered Sweetener: This is my favorite brand of low carb sweetener and you can find a link to the product below the recipe card. If you want to Use Swerve Powdered Sweetener, you would need to use a little less. Start with half the amount and add more if you think it needs to be sweeter.
