THE BEST (AND THE LAST!) CREAM CHEESE FROSTING YOU'LL EVER MAKE



The Best (And the Last!) Cream Cheese Frosting You'll Ever Make image

This cream cheese frosting uses marshmallow fluff and blows every other cream cheese frosting made with just 10x out of the water. I frost carrot cake with it, and EVERYONE who tries this loves it!! You won't believe how good it is! I had to add it since I didn't see it when I was searching for the recipe. Originally from Paula's Place blog, but I found it on "With a Grateful Prayer and a Thankful Heart" blog. Google it for the full recipe. The carrot cake is to die for!

PERFECT CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Perfect Cream Cheese Frosting image

I found this on the howtoeatacupcake blog. I haven't tried it myself but the reviews were great. Here are some tips: To have perfectly smooth cream cheese frosting with enough body to spread in dramatic swirls or even pipe through a pastry bag, you have to know these two secrets. First, overbeating breaks down the cream cheese, and produces grainy looking frosting that is too soft to hold a shape. Second, cold (not softened) cream cheese produces the best texture in both of our methods. Have the butter, if you use it, at the temperature recommended for the method you choose, and sift the powdered sugar after measuring.

Time 30m

Yield 2 Cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces cream cheese
5 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional)
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 -2 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
ground cinnamon or liqueur, of choice

Steps:

  • Food Processor Method.
  • Have the cream cheese cold. The butter can be cold, but preferably at room temperature, 68 to 70 degrees F. Combine cream cheese, butter, vanilla and sugar in a food processor and pulse just until smooth and creamy. If the frosting is too stiff, pulse for a few seconds longer. Do not overprocess. If desired, stir in additional flavoring to taste.
  • Electric Mixer Method.
  • Have the cream cheese cold and the butter at room temperature. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until blended. Add sugar one-third at a time and beat just until smooth and the desired consistency. If frosting is too stiff, beat for few seconds longer. Do not overbeat. If desired, stir in additional flavoring to taste. This keeps, refrigerated, for about 1 week. Or freeze for up to 3 months. Soften and stir until smooth before using.

ALMOST CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Almost Cream Cheese Frosting image

Carrot cake without cream cheese frosting just isn't carrot cake. Due to an allergy to vegetable gum (xanthan gum), cream cheese is out of the question and mascarpone cheese is just too expensive. I needed to come up with a sub because the frosting in the can isn't that good. This recipe uses laughing cow cheese wedges and buttermilk to replace the cream cheese in the traditional recipe.
