Ingredients
Scale
2 cupsGreek yogurt (may use plain or vanilla, depending on how sweet you want your frosting)
1 cuppowdered sugar
Instructions
Line a small sieve with coffee filters (I suggest 1 filter per 1 cup of yogurt). Spoon yogurt over coffee filter and smooth evenly. Place over a large bowl. Refrigerate overnight, allowing yogurt to drain into bowl.
Discard draining liquid. Spoon drained yogurt into a medium bowl; beat in powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth.
Notes
I recommend refrigerating cakes/cupcakes after topping with this frosting.
