Small Batch cream cheese frosting

This is a very easy and simple recipe for cream cheese frosting! This classic frosting uses cream cheese, butter, heavy cream, and powdered sugar. It goes amazingly well with cupcakes, cakes, and cookies. And since it is a small batch you will not find yourself wasting any leftovers!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Start by beating the butter and cream cheese until everything is well combined
  • Add in the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla and whip again until light and fluffy.
  • Pipe, spread, or store it in the fridge for later use.

Notes

I like to use cold cream cheese and butter for this recipe because I feel like it gives me a better result. You will need a strong mixed to get everything well incorporated though!
