Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Almond butter, creamy
- 4 cups Powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and almond butter.
Step 2
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butters together until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated after each addition.
Step 4
Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl. Mix on medium speed until the frosting reaches a smooth, fluffy consistency, about 2-3 more minutes.
Step 5
If the frosting is too thick, add an additional teaspoon of heavy cream at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
Step 6
Use immediately to frost your cakes, cupcakes, or cookies, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Let the frosting come to room temperature and re-whip before using.
