http://www.veganbaking.net/ 675-1318 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Just tried this icing for some strawberry cupcakes and it is delish. I have had a really hard time finding a vegan icing that doesn't get all runny and oozy--this is the one! I had so much fun piping it on that I ended up playing tic-tac-toe on my cupcakes. Super easy too! I used the modified 1/4 amount version posted in a review above and it was perfect. I will be trying it with butter instead of coconut oil next time as another user did (I like coconut flavor but have to be in the right mood for it). Thanks for sharing this great recipe! ]]> Fri, 25 Jan 2013 23:31:01 -0500 675-885 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing i'd love to add some crushed strawberries to this icing, make it more like a sauce. would that work without making it runny? what amount would you suggest? thanks. ]]> Tue, 24 Apr 2012 15:07:14 -0400 675-873 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Hey, Laurie! I don't have coconut oil so i used Earth Balance vegan butter... it worked out great! so delicious and creamy =] hope this helps! ]]> Sat, 31 Mar 2012 20:07:38 -0400 675-870 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Can other types of oil be used? I'm asking because I live in Australia where coconut oil is difficult to find. ]]> Fri, 30 Mar 2012 04:29:37 -0400 675-831 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Since I have discovered Mattie's Sticky Cinnamon Rolls with Vanilla Icing, I have been making them almost every weekend! I prefer to make a fresh single batch of this awesome icing, rather than keeping leftovers in the fridge. So for those of you who might find it difficult to cut this recipe down to a 1/4, (which is all you need), I am posting the measurements for a single batch: 1 cup powdered sugar 1 Tbsp coconut oil 1 Tbsp non-dairy milk 1/2 tsp vanilla extract smidgen of salt Other side notes... I have been using unrefined coconut oil and it works fine. The non-diary milk I have been using is Almond. ]]> Sat, 03 Mar 2012 19:11:43 -0500 675-792 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing When I looked at the ingredients, 4 cups of powdered sugar seemed like a lot for my dozen cinnamon rolls, so I cut the recipe in half. I ended up only using half of what I made. The rest is in the refrigerator. I plan to make another batch of Mattie's Sticky Cinnamon Rolls again soon, and I will use up the left over icing at that time. Thanks for letting us know that the icing can last for two weeks in the fridge. ]]> Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:28:11 -0500 675-539 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Does it have to be refined coconut oil? ]]> Wed, 20 Jul 2011 13:10:50 -0400 675-327 http://www.veganbaking.net/cake-decorating/icings/675-vanilla-icing Wow, that was really good frosting and really easy to make. I love how it melted when I poured it on those awesome cinnamon buns! I made it way too early and it started to solidify. After 20 seconds in the microwave, it was ready for pouring. I really love how simple and good this recipe is :) Mattie, seriously love all your recipes! ]]> Sun, 23 Jan 2011 17:58:27 -0500
