SWEETEN TO YOUR LIKING

Although the recipe calls for 3 cups of confectioners sugar, add 1 suggest adding one cup at a time. 

 

After combining ingredients with a hand held mixer, taste a sample. 

Add more confectioners sugar (aka powdered sugar) until satisfied with the taste.

I used 1-1/2 cups because I prefer “slightly” sweet frosting.

HELPFUL PREPARATION TIPS

Make sure the cream cheese and unsalted butter are VERY soft before mixing together.  This will help make the frosting smooth. 

 

Tiny lumps in the frosting are okay.  Still tastes great in my opinion. 

Use a hand-held mixture to thoroughly combine ingredients until preferred smoothness.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Made-from-scratch cream cheese frosting is a superb finish on banana bread, red velvet mini Bundt cakes, carrot cake, and vanilla cake. 

Use this delicious frosting as a filling between my Cream Cheese Cake Mix Cookies and Red Velvet Bundt Cake. 

 

Stack two Mini Red Velvet Bundt Cakes in a dessert bowl.

Spread frosting in the middle and on top.
