Coconut Frosting Recipe
Amber
Soft, creamy coconut flavored buttercream is the perfect topping for these cookies or cupcakes or whatever it is that you're making!
- 3 sticks softened butter
- 4-6 C powdered sugar
- About 1/3 C milk
- 2 tsp coconut extract
- Coconut for sprinkling
- Whole Almonds
Beat butter until smooth. Add milk and powdered sugar. Begin with 4 C of powdered sugar and add more as needed to reach desired consistency. (Should be fairly thick but not so thick that you won’t be able to squeeze it out of a piping bag to frost.) Add coconut extract and mix in thoroughly.
Spoon frosting into a Ziploc bag, snip off one corner and pipe into center of cookie. Spread a little with a knife.
