4-Ingredient Coconut Macadamia Frosting

Nguyên liệu

• 1 3/4 cups macadamia nuts
• 2 1/4 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• 4-6 Tbsp powdered sugar

Cách làm

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and place macadamia nuts on a baking sheet.

2. 2

   Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the macadamias have a bit of golden color and become fragrant. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes.

3. 3

   Add nuts to a food processor and blend into a meal. Remove and set aside.

4. 4

   Add coconut flake to the processor and blend until creamy and smooth. This will take anywhere from 5-10 minutes depending on the strength/blade of your food processor. Scrape down sides as needed.

5. 5

   As soon as you have your coconut butter, add macadamia nut meal and vanilla and blend again until smooth.

6. 6

   Add powdered sugar 1 Tbsp at a time until you reach desired sweetness. I found that 5-6 was perfect for me, plus helped it thicken up a bit (amount as original recipe is written).

7. 7

   At this point it's perfect for adding to a squeeze bottle or piping bag and piping onto your baked good. Otherwise, you can refrigerate it to make it thicker. Will keep stored in the refrigerator for up to a month. Recipe (as originally written) makes enough to frost at least 3-4 dozen cookies + leftovers.
