Ingredients
- 1 cup vegan butter softened at room temperature
- ⅓ cup shortening room temperature
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon fine salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the softened butter and shortening for 3 minutes using the paddle attachment.
- Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, beating and scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula after each addition.
- Add the salt and vanilla and beat until combined. Use your spatula to work the air bubbles out of the buttercream.
- Keep the buttercream in the fridge if it seems to be getting too soft.
Notes
Storage Directions
- Refrigeration: Dairy-free buttercream needs to be kept in the fridge to make sure it doesn't melt into a puddle! You can store it in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Be sure to bring it to room temperature and re-whip it before frosting.
- Freezing: If freezing the frosting, put it in an airtight container or freezer bag and keep it in the freezer for up to 3 months.
