Equipment

  • whisk
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil softened, room temperature; organic
  • 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vegan milk
  • 2 drops pure almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons freeze dried raspberries crushed (see method)

Instructions

  • Add the soft coconut oil to a 2 cup bowl. Sift confectionary sugar over and stir with a wire whisk until very smooth. Add milk and almond extract, beat smooth.
  • Crush the freeze dried raspberries fine: tear a 1 foot piece of waxed paper. Lay on your work surface, add raspberries and fold over to enclose. Run a rolling pin over back and forth until the raspberries are crushed fine.
    Add this to the bowl and mix in well until you have a pretty pink color. Use immediately.
    (Add a dropful of milk if too thick; confectionary sugar if seems thin.)
