Best Fluffy Cream Cheese Frosting, Grain Free, Gluten Free And Not Too Sweet

Alyssa, Brittany and I could easily become frosting addicts. I’m sure it is my fault that the two of them love fluffy frosting so much. You see, each time I made a cake when they were little girls, I would always make extra frosting and store it in an airtight container. Whenever we had a piece of cake, we would put more frosting on top even though the cake already had double frosting .

Eventually we all just started eating the frosting out of the container. Whenever we had a hankering for frosting, we would just take a clean spoon out of the drawer and get a spoonful of frosting to eat s.l.o.w.l.y. kind of like you would a lollipop.

Like I said, we love frosting and we are all professional frosting consumers. After one lick, we can tell you if the frosting is yummy or not up to par.

There is an endless list of foods and things that taste delicious with frosting on it or that can be dipped into frosting. Foods such as:

• cake with frosting
• brownies with frosting
• pies with frosting
• bread pudding with frosting
• fruit with frosting
• graham crackers with frosting
• pretzels with frosting
• cookies with frosting
• cupcakes with frosting
• cinnamon rolls with frosting
• doughnuts with frosting
• saltine crackers with frosting
• chocolate truffle candies with frosting
• pancakes with frosting
• waffles with frosting
• french toast with frosting
• ice cream with frosting
• spoons with frosting
• body parts with frosting…like fingers. What were you thinking!?! (wink)

With so many uses for frosting, I made it my mission years ago to create the best and most fluffy frosting on the planet. My cream cheese frosting is indeed the best and most fluffy cream cheese frosting you will ever eat. There is even an added bonus to my fluffy frosting. Not only is it the best and most fluffy cream cheese frosting you’ve ever eaten, it is also grain free, gluten free and not too sweet. How’s that for fantastic?

Best Fluffy Cream Cheese Frosting, Grain Free, Gluten Free And Not Too Sweet

Don’t let the word “frosting” intimidate you. I’m sure that you will make this frosting like a pro and it won’t be runny or taste gross.

Yes, I’m totally sure.

Put the butter and cream cheese in a mixing bowl with the whipping attachment. If you’re in a hurry you can put the butter, cream cheese, half the sugar and salt in the bowl at one time. Today I was in a hurry, so all the ingredients were plopped into the bowl at once.

Begin whipping the ingredients just until they start to combine.

Add the pure vanilla extract to the mixture in the bowl and start whipping.

When it starts to get a little fluffy, about a minute into whipping, turn the mixer speed down to the lowest setting and add half of the remaining sugar. Whip for another minute and if the frosting appears not that fluffy or thick, add the rest of the sugar. I usually use all the sugar. Now crank up the mixer speed and whip and whip and whip the frosting for about three to five more minutes. When you turn off the mixer, the frosting will be super fluffy.

All that’s left to do is spread it on top of your favorite dessert or dip something in it. As a reminder, don’t forget to lick the whipping beater. You don’t really want to waste any frosting do you?

Mmmmmmm…

So yummy.

What are you waiting for…get in the kitchen and make some frosting!

No, don’t make “some” frosting, make my best fluffy cream cheese frosting that is grain free and gluten free!!!
