Chocolate Cupcakes & Nut Butter Cream Frosting

Feb 20, 2021 (2 Comments)

Nut butter cream frosting
Nut butter cream frosting

This is a mash up post. I often post individual recipes that can be used in a number of ways because I offer a number of ways to make things. In this case, it's my chocolate cupcakes and nut butter cream frosting.

You can use this frosting on a bunch of different things, like cupcakes, cakes, sliced apples, bananas, in a waffle cone, and just on a spoon, solo.

I'm going to update some of my other buttercream recipes, but until then, this is my favorite buttercream frosting. If you're not doing nuts or can't, substitute the nut butter with a seed butter, such as sunflower seed butter or pumpkin seed butter.

    I am currently living out of your "Everyday Keto Baking" book. -- My husband is worsening diabetic, currently on pills yet, and it time to knock carbs way down in our family diet. - Breads, easy breakfast foods have been the hardest thing to find adjustments and substitutions for - and it's become even more important to him, who historically does not eat many sweets, to have something sweet around to keep his spirits up. I've got so many recipes marked in your book and have already put 4 of them to work. -- And now, as I looked you up to say "thank you" I discover this site and your FB presence, and my shoulders are slowly relaxing, we can do this, I can make recipes work for us and live well.
    Thanks for doing the "homework" for us!
