This is from the Better Homes and Garden Cookbook. I love that book. My sister Melissa can't get enough of this frosting. Anytime I want to send some happiness her way, I make the chocolate version of this frosting with a chocolate cake. Yum!INGREDIENTS:
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened (I prefer butter)
2 teaspoons vanilla
5 3/4 to 6 1/4 cups powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS:
- Beat cream cheese, butter, and vanilla with electic mixer until light and fulffy. gradually add 2 cups of the powdered sugar, beating well. Gradually beat in additional powdered sugar to reach spreading consistency. This frosts tops and sides of two 8- or 9-inch layers. (Halve the recipe to frost a 13X9X2-inch cake.) Cover and store frosted cake in the refrigerator.
Prepare as above, except beat 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder into the cream cheese mixture and reduce powdered sugar to 5 1/4 to 5 3/4 cups. Makes about 3 2/3 cups.
