Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt ((I use Fage 5%))
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar ((or 1 cup of a sugar-free powdered sweetener, or 1 tablespoon of stevia glycerite))
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour ((only if using stevia))

Instruction

  • Place a fine-mesh strainer over a small bowl. Place the yogurt in the strainer. Wrap with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to drain for at least two hours and preferably overnight. This step is important. Otherwise, the yogurt will be too liquid to make a proper frosting.
  • Using an electric hand mixer set on medium speed, beat together the strained yogurt, vanilla, and sweetener (and coconut flour if using) until the frosting thickens, about 2 minutes.
  • Cover and place in the fridge for 30-60 minutes while you bake and cool your cake or cupcakes.
  • To frost your cupcakes, wait until they are completely cool. Then fill a quart-size Ziploc bag with the frosting, snip the corner and use it to pipe frosting onto the cupcakes. Or simply use a spatula or a spoon to spread the frosting on the cupcakes.
