Used this frosting with the Best Ever Carrot Cake and it was excellent. However, need to double the recipe if you split the cake layers like I did. Also, instead of using milk I had some whipping cream on hand that needed to be used so I used it instead. Made the icing very creamy. Served to company and they just raved about it.

Really fast, really easy, really yummy. Use 8 oz. of cream cheese for best results.

This is the best frosting I have ever had! I made it for the Best Ever Carrot Cake, and I thought it was amazing!! I added a bit less milk as the consistency was perfect before adding all the milk. Yum!!

I cut the recipe in 1/2 and used 4 oz. of cream cheese (I do think that the 3 oz. must be a typo), and I only used 1 1/3 c. of powdered sugar. I also had to do the sub for allspice, using cinnamon, ginger & cloves. I also added a dash of nutmeg, the end result was very tasty & made a nice frosting for A-Number-1-Banana Cake. Thanks for your recipe V!

Very good frosting! I used it with the Lite Carrot Cake recipe also at this site. I used 2-8 ounce packages of Neufchatel cream cheese, and instead of allspice I just used cinnamon. Frosting turned out very creamy, and not as thick as regular cream cheese frosting. Everyone loves it!

YUM!!! I used it to top an easy spice cookie recipe I've been using for years (1 box spice cake mix, 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup Crisco, 1 egg-bake at 350 for 11 minutes). Took the frosted cookies to a Christmas Sing at my son's pre-school and they were gone in minutes...people said they were the best cookies on the table! Will definitely use again and again - thanks V for sharing!!!

This is the best cream cheese frosting I've ever tasted. I used it on an apple spice cake and had left overs which stored really well for a week. I then used it to frost Holiday Sugar cookies and the frosting was a perfect compliment. I love this recipe.

Delicious! I used it on Sweet Potato Pound Cake from this website. I did not add the milk, however, because it was creamy and spreadable without it.

Used this recipe with "Pear cake" and it was a great hit. Super easy and good! I think this would be great on carrot cake too.

I used 8 oz. of the lite cream cheese and although the icing was delicious, it didn't have as much of a "cream cheese" taste as some others I've tried. The allspice gave it a nice touch and I'll probably use it again for variety. Thanks for sharing.

Great frosting! I reduced the sugar to 1 1/2 cups though which i thought was sweet enough. And i didn't have allspice, so i used a combo of cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of ground cloves. Tastes amazing.

This has become my standard cream cheese frosting. It's very light and fluffy. I leave out the spices when I frost some cakes. As is it is delicious on cinnamon rolls!

Oh my goodness, is this ever good. I am a HUGE fan of anything with cream cheese in it and this will be a new favorite. I used 4oz fat free and 4oz regular. So good and so easy. A great option for spice cakes, pumpkin bars (or rolls) or carrot cake.
