How do you make frosting without butter?

Powdered (confectioner's) sugar is a basic ingredient to cream cheese frosting. Substitutions such as granulated table sugar, brown sugar or honey will not produce acceptable cream cheese frosting. In a pinch, it may be possible to process granulated white sugar in a blender or food processor until very fine. Then add a tablespoon of corn starch to each cup of very finely processed sugar to approximate powdered sugar.


How do you thicken frosting that's too thin?

To make butter cream frosting thicker you should put it in the fridge, or beat it in a bowl over (not in) ice, or mix in a little more butter. If it is egg-white frosting put it in the top of a double boiler and beat it a little over simmering water. :)

What is in vegan powdered sugar?

powdered sugar is simply white table sugar that has been pulverized. traditional cane sugar (as opposed to beet sugar) is refined through charcoal, which some times consists of bone char from animals. vegans are opposed to this because it means an animal product is part of the process of creating the sugar. vegan powdered sugar is made with unrefined sugar that has been pulverized with corn starch, in order to simulate the consistency of non-vegan powdered sugar.

Properly baked cookies are attractive without additional embellishment. But a sprinkling of powdered or colored sugar can add to their appeal. A simple curly line of frosting in a contrasting color - white on chocolate, pink or chocolate on light cookies - is also dependably attractive.
