How To Make The Best Cream Cheese Frosting In The World
This is the best cream cheese frosting anywhere! I LOVE my mother’s recipe because it is good for every kind of cookie, doughnut, cake or pastry! I used to buy some famous Bundt shaped cakes because I liked the frosting, besides the cake itself, not anymore! This frosting is the best! You can make it thinner for a drizzle type frosting, or you make it thicker to use a piping tool of any kind.
MY LATEST VIDEOSI was so glad I found her recipe in her old wooden (heirloom treasure to me) recipe box.
Best Cream Cheese Frosting:
Here are the only ingredients you need….butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. I use clear vanilla to keep my frosting white. My favorite vanilla: Watkins Original Double Strength Extract, Vanilla, 11 Ounce
You Can Freeze This Cream Cheese Frosting:
I love this recipe because I can freeze a few batches of cream cheese frosting in small plastic containers. I just pull out the container from the freezer the day before I plan to use it and place it in the refrigerator and it’s ready to use when needed.
You should try this recipe on my cinnamon rolls: Linda’s Cinnamon Rolls.

OH MY GOODNESS – I LOVE cream cheese frosting. I’d recommend using a vanilla bean paste instead of regular vanilla. Trust me…you won’t regret it!
Met you at SNAP and I’m just now going through my business cards…whoops! Totally stalking you in ever possible way! Hope you’ll check out my site!

Thank you for this recipe, Linda. Sounds good and I will save it so that when Farmer H decides to frost something, it will be on a piece of paper instead of my having to look it up and read it to him. Lazy of me, I know.
