This smooth and creamy peanut butter frosting is the perfect topping for any cupcake! 

This frosting is smooth, creamy and super easy to make!  My favorite Crazy Richard’s creamy peanut butter is front and center in this frosting.  

It’s absolutely delicious and go so well with chocolate,  but you can top your favorite cake or cupcakes with this very simple frosting.

How to Make Keto Peanut Butter Frosting

Ingredients

1/2 cup mascarpone cheese

1/2 cup unsalted grass-fed butter

1/2 cup Crazy Richard’s creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup swerve, confectioners (or powdered erythritol)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Whip the mascarpone and butter together in a bowl using a hand mixer.

Add most of the heavy cream (reserving about a tablespoon) and swerve confectioners (or powdered erythritol).

Then the peanut butter and vanilla extract, mix until smooth and creamy.

Add more of the heavy cream if needed, to get your desired consistency.

Add the frosting to a piping bag fitted with the tip of your choice (ziplock bag with the tip cut off will work too).

And frost your cooled cake or cupcakes.

I used mine with my chocolate cupcakes.
