Eatomaniac 🙂 –

Icing 🙂

Cakes are delicious but the icing on top adds a special layer of deliciousness, transforming the cake. Today I will share a simple recipe for one of the best kinds of icing – Cream Cheese Frosting 🙂

Ingredients:

cream cheese – 1 8-ounce package at room temperature
butter – 1/4 cup at room temperature
powdered sugar – 1 cup
vanilla essence – 1 teaspoon

Procedure:

In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and butter. Stir in vanilla essence. Gradually mix in icing sugar. You can use an electric hand mixer with the whisk attachment or simply a whisk. Keep mixing till all ingredients are smoothly combined without any lumps.

Delicious Cream Cheese Frosting is ready for some cake 🙂

You can use it at room temperature to ice cakes and cupcakes. Should you wish to save it for later use, they keep well in the refrigerator for up to a week. Alternatively, you may freeze it for later use and thaw as required.

Also, you can have fun with this base recipe and add various flavors such as lemon (lemon juice and lemon zest), strawberry (pureed strawberries), chocolate (melted chocolate or cocoa) per your preference.
