Ingredients
  1. 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  2. 1/2 cup butter, softened
  3. 2-3 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
  4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I use the real vanilla...I prefer the taste)
Instructions
  1. With an electric mixer, mix the butter and cream cheese together, about 3 minutes on medium speed until very smooth.
  2. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
  3. Add the vanilla extract and mix.
  4. Slowly add the powdered sugar.
  5. Keep adding until you get to desired sweetness and thickness.
  6. Either spread on with a blunt knife or spatula, or spoon into a piping bag to decorate your cake or cupcake.
  7. Makes 3 cups
  8. Store in the refrigerator after use.
Notes
  1. If you want chocolate frosting, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup cocoa, according to how rich you want it.
