Sweet Potato Chocolate Frosting

It’s decadent, it’s sweet and it’s healthy! Believe it: the sweet potato makes for a smooth and creamy texture. Use this frosting on your cakes, cupcakes or even as a dip for fresh fruit. This frosting favorite is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and even refined sugar-free!

If your kids are like mine, don’t tell them the main ingredient is sweet potato until after they’ve told you how much they like it! This frosting also works great on my quinoa chocolate cake!
