Cream Cheese Frosting
This is my husbands favorite frosting recipe. Smooth, creamy and sweet, it’s the perfect cake or cupcake topper.
Cream Cheese Frosting
1/2 cup of butter (1 stick) at room temperature
1 - 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
4 cups of powdered sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla
With an electric mixer, mix the butter and cream cheese together about 3 minutes on medium speed until very smooth. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
Add the vanilla extract and mix. Slowly add the powdered sugar and mix until smooth and fluffy.
Use to frost your favorite cake or cupcakes.
