Tangy Peanut Butter Icing
A lot of the time I try and eat as much icing as possible on a cake before I get sick. I don’t know if I genuinely become physically sick or my mouth is just tired of the excessive sweetness. Either way, we’ve all been there as icing lovers and it is obvious that I live my life in excess. Sometimes we love icing more than it loves us back. In the midst of this idea, I was on my tenth banana bread of the pandemic and it was showing. The same flavor profile being emulated over and over and over again, I had to do something different. I wanted to do a topping but didn’t want it to be overly sweet, so, this is how my Tangy Peanut Butter Icing was made. It has a good cinnamon flavor, tangy sweetness, and last but not least, you can eat a lot of it without feeling overwhelmed!
