It was very nice tasting and great alternative to cream cheese. I would say that it is more like a glaze than an icing. I used to to glaze a sour cream pound cake and it really added great flavor and texture.

I loved this frosting. I made a wild cherry sheet cake and made this frosting for it. I put a couple drops of red food coloring in it to tint it pink (my daughters favorite color) and it went great with this cake. It is a sweet frosting with a bit of a thinner consistancy but it sets up really well in the fridge. I made this because I was out of cream cheese and was pleasantly surprised. Thanx.

I made this for some valentine's day cookies I made, because I didn't have any cream cheese in the fridge, but had lots of sour cream. I added red food coloring to make it a nice pink color. It was delicious! It made a lot, so, to use up the extra I made cinnamon rolls. I enjoyed it even more on these.

I wasn't to happy with not having frosting on hand and quickly looked this recipe up. I just happened to have sour cream and made this frosting. I was happy I did. Yum! Thanks for the great recipe!

Wow! I wasn't at all sure about this, but like the previous review, I was out of cream cheese, so I made this for my cinnamon rolls...I think I might actually like this even better than cream cheese frosting! A little tangy, just enough to offset the sweet. Great!!

This is delicious when paired with Clone of a Cinnabon from this site. Better than a cream cheese frosting for cinnamon rolls, and fat-free sour cream works great!

Delicious! Sweet and smooth with a hint of a lemony zing. I used it on an orange/lemon supreme layered cake. It was SOOOO good!

This is like a glaze; I used it on allrecipes' Banana Cake VII. Great substitute for regular frosting in a pinch! This would be great to glaze a bundt cake with holes poked in the bottom and poured over it.
