This is my favorite recipe for cream cheese frosting that I have developed from modifying several frosting recipes. It is quick and easy and you can modify it to your own particular taste.





Used mainly on carrot cake and red velvet cake. Any leftover is great on ginger bread cup cakes.





Make your frosting or icing while your cake is baking. Put frosting in fridge while waiting for cake to cool.





Cream Cheese Frosting:





1/2 Cup (one stick) Unsalted Butter, room temperature





1 8-ounce and one 4-ounce package Cream Cheese, softened (use good quality cheese, not low fat)





2 Teaspoons Vanilla





1/4 Teaspoon Salt





1 Package (1 lb. box) Powdered Sugar plus an additional 陆 to 1 cup





Milk or Cream to adjust consistency of frosting if necessary





Beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add the vanilla and salt. Beat in the 1 lb. box of sugar. Add a teaspoon of milk or cream if the frosting is too stiff to spread; add additional sugar if it鈥檚 too thin. (I usually add some of the additional sugar).
1-8oz. softened cream cheese


2 cups powdered sugar


1 teaspoon vanilla


Cream together and frost cooled cake
Get a couple of packages of cream cheese(depending on how much you want) Whip the CC with an electric mixxer if you have one. Add sugar, taste. Add more sugar to your liking.
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened


1/2 cup butter, softened


2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar


1 teaspoon vanilla extract


In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the confectioners' sugar. Store in the refrigerator after use.
