Cream Cheese Frosting

This recipe also comes from the Martha Stewart episode where the girls from DC Cupcakes on TLC were guests. As soon as I tried this recipe I immediately threw out my old recipe and this is the only cream cheese frosting recipe that I use now. I promise you will love it too!

Recipe:

1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temp
4 cups confectioner's sugar, sifted
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
6 oz. cream cheese, room temp

Cream butter, vanilla and cream cheese together until well combined, approximately 1-2 minutes. Add confectioner's sugar, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Frosting will be pure white and have a spreadable yet thick texture. Color frosting if desired.
