This frosting goes very well on my Low-Carb Spice Cake. It will cover a 8" or 9" round or square cake in the pan. It is also good as a spread (just don't add the water). I sometimes like to make my Flax Seed Bread with extra sweetener and about a tablespoon of cinnamon. This spread is good on the bread made that way.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
- 8 oz package cream cheese
- liquid sucralose equivalent to about 2/3 cup of sugar (or to taste)
- 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon caramel flavoring
- 2 tablespoons water
Preparation:
Using a mixer, combine all ingredients and beat until smooth.For a spread, don't add any water. I use about half the sweetener of frosting when making a spread.
Variations: Try using maple flavoring, or basically any kinds you want!
Nutritional Information: Two tablespoons of spread, or one of eight servings of frosting has less than 1 gram effective carbohydrate plus 2 grams protein, and 89 calories. For one of nine servings of frosting, it's still less than a gram of carbohydrate, 2 grams protein, and 100 calories.
