Just what I was looking for, not too sweet or thick. I frosted 24 white cupcakes with a thin layer then put sliced strawberries on top. Yummy! I did add a tablespoon or so of butter and an extra tablespoon of cream cheese. I think I would use a thicker frosting if you are planning to do a three layer cake, maybe use some of the suggestions to add more sugar and cheese but that in itself if a different frosting recipe.

I added about 2TBSP of cocoa to the powdered sugar. Very light chocolate taste and fantastic on a vanilla cake!

This was so easy and delicious. There was some left over and I would use it as I would regular cream cheese spread on a bagel.

Gr8 4 carrot cake. Easy. I tripled the recipe. Great as is, but I added the meat of one vanilla bean to give it additional homey style. I love the look of specks of vanilla. I will continue to use this recipe for many other treats, thank you.

This was really delicious! It was pretty runny though, so if you want a thick frosting like the picture, you will need to add powdered sugar until you get to where you're happy.

This frosting is really runny. I think it was because I used light cream cheese. I had to add 2 more c. Of powdered sugar & it still was runny. Next time I make it I will put it in the refrigerator for a few min before I use it. Once I refrigerated it, it stayed firm.

The best frosting my grandson Anthony (6 years old) has ever had, he just loves it! We are making some this morning to frost a cake, and have used it to make graham cracker sandwiches. Perfect as written, we always double it!

It tasted good, but was really runny. I thought it would be a lot thicker like it is in the picture, but I had to double the amount of sugar to get it to a decent piping consistency for cupcakes.
