Made this to frost Pumpkin Cake III. It was so good! I cut the amount of powdered sugar in half and it perfectly complimented the sweet cake, and we all decided it would be fabulous on cinnamon rolls, too. Thanks for sharing it!

I loved the creaminess of this frosting. It's a great addition to Sam's Famous Carrot Cake recipe from this webiste. I used 3 cups of powdered sugar because I didn't want it to be super thick. YUM!

Made only 2 servings to frost my mini muffins using "Delicious Pumpkin Bread." I did add a little water to make it more spreadable.

5 with the changes I made, but if I'd made it as stated I think the sweet would've about knocked me over! (If you want SWEET though, make as stated)! :) I got nervous when I saw the calorie count, so I knocked the butter down to 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) and used 2 cups powdered sugar - everything else the same. I am about to enter a sugar coma and if I die I will leave this world happy! Holy heck, this is AWESOME frosting!! Soooo creamy and smooth and super easy to spread, the flavor (with the changes mentioned above) resulted in a very nice light cream cheese flavor with a touch of sweetness, almost separate flavors. It is PERFECT with the cinnamon apple whole wheat muffins I made that came out very bland and needed something for flavor, they are now like little apple cinnamon carrot cakes... mmm!! :) (I confess, I also licked the bowl and beaters... can't remember the last time I did that)!

This is the best cream cheese frosting recipe. I have used it for years and simply vary the amount of sugar based on what dessert I'm frosting and the preferences of the people I'm baking for.

I did not love this frosting. The taste was pretty good, but I actually would have preferred more of the cream cheese taste and less of the butter. The biggest problem I had was the frosting LITERALLY ran right off the cake as soon as it reached room temperature. This caused the top layer of cake to slide about three inches to the right. Once re-refrigerated, it was fine and hardened right up. Sorry, this one just wasn't for me.

Very good basic cream cheese frosting. I only added about 3 1/4 cups sugar and it was still a little too sweet...but this is all a matter of taste. I put it on a carrot cake and it was delicious!

PERFECT!!! Will definitely make over and over, and over. I used this on a red velvet cake. I'd like to use some on a spice cake, carrot cake and maybe some banana bread/cake.

I put this frosting on the strawberry cake from scratch that I also found on this site, and it was a hit. I made this for my husbands birthday, and I'm glad I did.

This was definitely the best cream cheese frosting I've made. I made pretty much to the exact specifications except I made strawberry cupcakes and put some strawberry gelatin mix in with the frosting and about 2 cups of the sugar. It turned out just right!

I used this icing on a red velvet cake I made for my class and it was pretty good. The problem with it is there is much too much sugar in this recipe. I used 3 cups instead of 4, and I still had students scraping it off the cake because they said it was too sweet. I think with only two cups of sugar it would be fantastic.
