To make this cacao chocolate buttercream you will need some patience. In a mixing bowl combine and stir:

  • 3 Tablespoons of vegan butter
  • 3 Tablespoons of vegan milk (almond milk, hazelnut milk, soy milk, rice milk, etc)
  • 1 Tablespoon of cacao powder
  • 2 cups of powdered sugar

Keep stirring until buttercream emerges (this is where the patience comes into play)! This buttercream hardens nicely once refrigerated.
