Have a birthday coming up? Or perhaps you just have something special to celebrate. Either way, there’s always a reason to eat cake, and when you have an amazing frosting recipe to pair with your cake…it’s even better. We stepped up our frosting game by adding our Fusion CBD Coffee Blends and offering TWO ways to make it. We have a regular batch and a small batch (because every once and a while a cupcake or two is nice to enjoy).

It’s always fun when you can get extra creative, and having different blends to choose from makes means you have options each time you make this.

Just be sure to let those you share your cake or cupcakes with know that you have added CBD to the frosting, and don’t share this one with children or anyone under 21.

Here are the recipes for both!

The Best CBD Coffee Buttercream Frosting:

Ingredients:

2 ½ cups of confectioners sugar

1 pinch salt

1 tsp of vanilla 

3 tsp of finely ground Fusion Coffee Blend of your choice

1 1/4 cups of butter

3 tbsp heavy cream

To Make CBD Coffee Buttercream Frosting

1. In a stand mixer using either the whisk or paddle attachment beat the butter on its own for 20-30 seconds until it’s smooth.  
2. Add the salt and confectioners sugar and beat on low speed until most of the sugar is moistened, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and then raise the speed to medium and continue to mix for another 30-45 seconds. 
3. In a separate bowl, mix together the cream, vanilla, and Fusion CBD Coffee; and stir the coffee into the cream.
4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl again and add the cream/coffee mixture.  Beat for 20 seconds or so on low speed until incorporated.
5. Increase mixer speed to medium-high and beat until frosting is light and fluffy – about 4-5 minutes.

Small Batch CBD Coffee Buttercream Frosting

Ingredients:

• 2 sticks butter softened
• 7 oz sweetened condensed milk (or half a can) very cold
• 3 teaspoon CBD Fusion Coffee finely ground
• 1 teaspoon hot water

 Directions:

1. First, start by mixing the Fusion CBD Coffee with hot water to create a paste. Set that aside and let it cool down completely.
2. While the coffee is cooling, cut the softened butter into cubes and place it in a stand mixer or a large bowl. Using the whisk attachment in the stand mixer or hand mixer, whip until the butter is light in color and fluffy.
3. Add the condensed milk to the whipped up butter mixture, making sure that the sweetened condensed milk is straight out of the refrigerator.. Whip the mixture again for one more minute or until combined.
4. Add in the Fusion CBD Coffee paste and whip it once more for a couple of minutes or until completely smooth.
5. Frost your cake or cupcakes immediately.
