Vegan American Buttercream

  • 2-1/4 lb Spectrum Shortening
  • 2 lb Earth Balance butter substitute
  • 1/2 lb unsweetened soymilk
  • 3 lb sifted powdered sugar (be wary of brand)
  • 0.08 lb vanilla or almond extract

Combine the shortening and butter substitute in the bowl of a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment.

When well combined, add the powdered sugar and mix until well blended.

Add soymilk and extract and mix until light and fluffy.

If desired, cocoa powder can be added to create chocolate frosting. More soymilk may be needed depending upon desired finished consistency.

Note: Not all brands of sugar are considered vegan. If preparing by vegan standards, be sure to use a vegan brand of powdered sugar.
