Low-Carb Vanilla Buttercream Frosting

Occasions deserve the occasional treat and my Low-Carb Vanilla Buttercream Frosting recipe is just that. A guilt-free and decadent cupcake filled with healthy fats, like coconut cream. Coconut cream has almost zero net carbs and contains lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty acid that can help with weight loss and improve brain function. Because of the higher amounts of saturated fat, coconut cream is very satiating, helping you to feel fuller longer. Coconut cream is also delicious, keeping this cupcake moist. Using a low to zero carb sweetener helps to maintain a more stable blood sugar level.
