This basic keto cream cheese frosting is what I used to put on top of my keto cinnamon rolls. It is so yummy you could eat it on its own. I honestly wouldn’t blame you! It’s so delicious!
I also like to dip strawberries or other low carb fruit into it as a treat! I have even used it on low carb cookies as well. Your imagination is the limit when it comes to what you can put this on!
It is really easy to make and only takes a few minutes and ingredients.
Ingredients to Make This Keto Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 1 brick of cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Swerve confectioners sweetener
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Put the cream cheese in a mixing bowl to come to room temperature.
- beat cream cheese with a mixer.
- Add heavy cream. Mix to combine and it should get a little fluffy.

- If the frosting is not sweet enough add a little more sweetener.
- Use on whatever you would like to frost such as my fathead dough cinnamon buns.
I am a cinnamon bun lover! In fact I want to make these keto cinnamon buns with keto cream cheese frosting as I am typing this! They don’t take very long to make and I usually keep the ingredients in my fridge and pantry just in case I get a craving for this sweet treat!
Since it uses fathead dough, I feel less guilty about eating them than I would full sugar and regular gluten free flour cinnamon rolls. LOL! Only guilty because have been trying so hard to stick to the ketogenic lifestyle! I love that so many recipes can be converted to lower carb which is awesome! Is there a recipe you would like for me to convert? Let me know!
