BUTTER CREAMCHEESE FROSTING



Butter Creamcheese Frosting image

this is one of those miracle finds. i made some cupcakes and realized i had no frosting and i didn't have all of what i needed for any recipe i could find. so i grabbed what i could find and hoped for the best. this ended up being the best frosting ever and both my kids (who normally don't do this believe it or not) were licking their cupcakes and having me re-frost them over and over LOL. it was the easiest thing i've ever made and probably the best.
