Powdered sugar – The key to any good frosting recipe. I used homemade keto powdered sugar, which is ridiculously quick and easy to make at home. Butter – Use room temperature butter, but not melted. Also, avoid using salted butter, unless you want your frosting to have a slightly salty tinge.
There are other Low Carb Sweetener available (like Confectioners Swerve) that are extremely suited to make frosting. Make sure the sweetener you use is an exact 1:1 sugar replacement, or else the sweetness will be off balanced.
