Tangerine Frosting (Non-Dairy)

 I wanted a non-dairy frosting, so made this recipe.   

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon grated tangerine or orange peel (zest of 1 tangerine)
• 5 to 6 teaspoons tangerine or orange juice (juice of 1 tangerine)
• 2 cups powdered sugar 
  

Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl, beat the cocount oil and grated zest until fluffy
   
2. Beat in 1 cup of powdered sugar, add 1/2 of the juice.
3. Beat in  the second cup of powdered sugar, add in the rest of the juice.
4. As needed, beat in a teaspoon or two of water at a time to thin the frosting
5. Spread over cooled cupcakes.
   

 

Carole's Notes:
