Default Frosting Recipes

Does anyone know of any good low carb frosting recipes? I searched the recipe forum but didn't find any. It is for a LC chocolate cake.

I tried it and it didn't turn out too good...better for me because I would have eaten the whole thing without cake if it did

I made the mistake of using regular salted butter, not thinking it would matter. Boy was I wrong. It was like eating a good cake that someone poured salt all over. Yuck! I'm sure if I had used the unsalted butter it would have been fine. Annie
