Vegan Chocolate Frosting without margarine

This recipe for vegan chocolate frosting without margarine came about because I dislike margarine. It’s a very simple way to make a healthy frosting. My recipe is refined sugar free being sweetened with a little coconut syrup and dried apricots. You could use maple syrup if you can’t get coconut syrup.
