I love this frosting because it’s dairy-free (always a plus for me) and it hardens forming a nice shell for easily stackable cookies—a bonus for the gift giving season. 


It also keeps very nicely in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Just press a piece of parchment or waxed paper onto the surface and cover with plastic wrap before refrigerating. Give a stir before using as it has a tendency to separate.
