This cream cheese icing recipe is great to make the most beautiful and very fluffy icing without butter, but with extra healthy and beautiful purple “Twist”.
1-8oz (250gr) package cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
½ cup icing sugar
1 cup blackberries
1. In a bowl, put cream cheese, vanilla, salt and lemon juice and start to mix with electrical mixer.
2. When everything is incorporated, start adding icing sugar scoop by scoop until everything is well blended.
3. Continue to mix it for another 4 minutes or until it’s very fluffy.
4. Pop inside the fridge until preparation of blackberries is completed.
5. Now lets make the icing purple. In a food processor crush the blackberries.
6. Transfer them to fine colander and with a spoon rubbing blackberries to the sides help juice and pulp to come true.
7. Mix the juice and pulp of blackberries with the icing and watch the magic happen, your snow-white icing becomes purple without any artificial coloring.
8. Cover it and pop into refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before icing anything.
To add my colorful “Twist”: add strawberries or raspberries pulp instead of blackberries for pink color, mango pulp for yellow color, and fresh spinach juice for green color. Cheers,
