Sugar Free Chocolate Frosting

A keto low carb chocolate frosting that’s sugar free and dairy free and uses just 2 ingredients is a match made in heaven! It’s quick and easy using a stand mixer taking just minutes to whip up. Using a good sugar-free chocolate brand is important to the success and taste of this delicious sugar free chocolate frosting. The brand I use that I think tastes fantastic is Lily’s Sweets Sugar Free Chocolate Chips. They also have bars and you can use either for this recipe. The reason Lily’s sweets is so good is that it does not contain any sugar alcohols that cause digestive issues like when ingesting Sorbitol or Maltitol. If you’ve ever had store bought sugar free candy and ate more than a serving or two, you know exactly what I’m talking about and it is not pleasant. Erythritol is a natural sugar alcohol,  but does not seem to cause me or anyone I know that also uses it, any issues with our digestion. Here’s a post I wrote about erythritol for more info if you’re still unsure about it. 

It could even be considered a chocolate mousse and eaten in little serving glasses as a dessert! But of course it’s fabulous prepared and spread over a chocolate cake! My Low Carb Chocolate Crazy Cake is made with shelf stable ingredients, and no eggs, butter or milk needed!

Canned Coconut Milk versus Fresh Coconut Milk

Unfortunately canned coconut milk and fresh, in a carton, coconut milk, are not the same. You simply can not replace the canned 

I like the brand Native Forest for canned unsweetened coconut milk which I find at Whole Foods and online. It often has the most amount of coconut cream in the can, about 3/4 of the can will be the cream and the rest will be watery liquid. Another brand is Cocoplanet that also has a lot of cream in the can, more than most other brands. 

This frosting will go perfectly on my Sugar Free Chocolate Cake Cake! It’s Egg Free, Low Carb, Dairy Free, Gluten Free, and Grain Free too! Or on my Chocolate Cupcakes or my 1 minute Chocolate Mug cake!

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar free chocolate chips Lily's Sweets brand
• 10 ounces canned coconut milk "cream" part only

Instructions

• Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for 30 second intervals or use a double boiler on the stove. Stir until smooth. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• Scoop only the thick coconut cream from the can. Use the watery liquid from the can for another recipe like a smoothie.
• Add the coconut cream to a stand mixer and blend until smooth.
• Slowly pour in the melted chocolate chips into the mixer and blend until combined well. If it looks too loose to spread like frosting simply place it in the fridge for 30 minutes and it will solidify enough to spread.
• Use frosting to decorate a cake or keep refrigerated until ready to decorate. May need to soften in the microwave for 30 seconds if kept refrigerated for a long period of time.
