Ingredients
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- well softened
8 ounces pumpkin flavored cream cheese
- about 1 cup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
4-5 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Beat the butter until smooth. Add half of the cream cheese and beat until fully incorporated and smooth. Add the rest of the cream cheese, along with vanilla and salt.
- Add 2 cups of the powdered sugar, blending until smooth. Add 2 more cups of the powdered sugar and blend until no powder remains. Check the frosting to see if it is stiff or needs more powdered sugar. Add one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency.
- Store any baked goods using cream cheese frosting in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
Notes
- This recipe will frost a 9×13 cake, two-layer 8-inch round cake, or 24 cupcakes.
- Cream cheeses and butters vary greatly between brands and this, so will the water content and amount of powdered sugar needed. Frosting will also be a little loose due to the cream cheese and/or butter being softened. Feel free to chill the frosting to set before using if it feels too thin.
