CREAM CHEESE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING



Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting image

This classic Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting tastes amazing! It is silky smooth, super flavorful, and tastes perfect with red velvet cakes, spice cakes, chocolate cakes, and more!

Provided by Melissa Diamond

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 sticks ,1 cup, (226g) unsalted butter, slightly softened
2 (8oz) packages cream cheese (total weight 452g) I use full fat cream cheese. Using reduced fat or the spreadable cream cheese will cause the frosting to be too soft. Soften very slightly.
2 teaspoons (8 g) vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt (2g) optional - it will cut the sweetness, popcorn salt is best to use because it is fine and dissolves faster
6 to 6 1/2 cups (690g to 747g) powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Cut the butter into slices and add to the bowl of your mixer. Beat on low to medium speed until the butter is softened and smooth.
  • Cut the cold cream cheese into pieces and add to the butter, beating at low to medium speed until incorporated. If you are using a hand mixer you may need to soften the cream cheese a bit more.
  • Add the vanilla. Gradually add the powdered sugar beating on low speed until blended. Cover the bowl with a towel to keep down the cloud of powdered sugar.
  • Increase mixing speed and beat until fluffy. Don't over beat or it will become too soft. If it becomes too soft, just refrigerate a short while to firm it up a bit.
  • This frosting will pipe best if used while still chilled. You can make it in advance, refrigerate and when ready to use let it soften slightly (do not microwave) and remix.
  • Will frost a 3 layer 8 or 9 inch cake.

MY FAMOUS CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



My Famous Cream Cheese Frosting image

I seem to make a lot of cakes and cupcakes. If there is a birthday in my very large family, I am the cake person. People have started to request that I use my Cream Cheese frosting, especially my kids! I have seen lots of recipes for Cream Cheese frosting on here, but they use a lot more Icing Sugar than I do, so they are really sweet and not very creamy. This a very creamy frosting, if you plan to decorate with it, I would add another half cup of icing sugar.
