Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature soft but not melted
- ½ cup softened butter, at room temperature
- 2 ½ to 3 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract/ essence
- 1 tsp lemon juice ( optional ) I love it.. As it cuts the sweetness of the frosting
- ¼ tsp salt.. Only if u are using unsalted butter.
Steps
- use electric mixer or stand mixer - beater attachment and not whipper-
- Beat the butter on medium setting 3 to 4 mins until it's light in color , fluffy and creamy...add in cream cheese ..beat it 1 to 2 mins until blended and smooth..add salt , vanilla extract, lemon juice.. gradually add the powdered sugar ¼ cup at a time on the lowest speed..Use 2 ½cups sugar first.
- Beat until frosting ingredients are completely combined. Check the consistency at this point. If it seems too soft, go ahead and add a little more sifted powdered sugar. After ingredients are blended . Beat it on high for a minute.. Viola .. U have the creamiest frosting ever .
- Sometimes due to weather conditions frostings tend to thin out.. Don't worry Pop it in the fridge for 10 to 15 mins..
- And it will be perfect pipe able consistency
- Tint it in the color u like..
- You can always create your own flavor variations !!!
- The recipe can be easily doubled .
- Use the frosting to frost your cake or cupcakes , cookies , brownies etc
- Always store cream cheese frosted goodies in d fridge.
