My kids love this frosting. They said it tastes like the filling in a peanut butter cup. My son has a milk allergy, so I came up with this recipe.

I substituted cashew milk for the soy milk but it is amazing! I am experimenting with vegan recipes for friends. I love regular buttercream frosting but I think this just took its place! Yummmmm! Read More

Receives an outstanding review from my peanut-butter loving husband and me. Is light and fluffy and the perfect topping for the chocolate zucchini cake I baked! I put it together just as recipe dictates with the exception of not measuring out the soy milk - drizzled it into the mixture until it was the consistency I wanted for the cake. Read More

Delicious! So smooth and creamy! Truly tasted like Nutter butters!!! It does turn out a little stiff but you can just add more soy milk to make more manageable. I used a vegan chocolate cake mix added the frosting and topped with Mazapán Mexican candy as it was a perfect topping. Read More
