This was really good, creamy frosting, without being too heavy or too light. It really is perfectly in the middle, easy to spread and easy to make. I used this on a dark chocolate cake and the combination was awesome.

This is my favorite frosting. I make a lot of desserts for work and my family and everyone LOVES this frosting. And it is simple too.

I followed the recipe exactly, and it never became stiff! It was just a cream cheese puddle. I tried saving it with powder sugar, but it never became stiff. A waste of money and time. Never again.

I was shocked when my frosting began to melt right after I began decorating. I followed the recipe exactly and now I am wondering where I want wrong when so many people loved this frosting. I cannot imagine making a wedding cake with this.

This is good for fans of frosting that is not very sweet. I never could get mine past the Cool Whip consistency like another reviewer. It made a lot, that is a good part about this recipe. There are better frosting recipes out there as far as I'm concerned.

Not bad. A little more cream cheese-y than what I was hoping for, but good. This recipe yields A LOT of frosting, so be sure to have plenty of cake to frost or you'll end up with an extra jar-ful of frosting (like I did). Went great with the Rasberry Angel Food Cake (also from this site), but I would have liked something a bit lighter and sweeter.

I love this recipe. This is the only frosting I will use for all of my homemade cakes. You can flavor it so many ways, too. I've used it with various food colorings, maple syrup, lemon extract, almond extract, chocolate powder, honey, strawberry jam; of course not all together, but they all turned out great!

I used this frosting on a white almond cake with a raspberry filling. The frosting complimented it PERFECTLY! I loved how it stood up against the heat. I put fresh berries all over the cake and the frosting held up great. THIS is a great recipe!

Really good frosting! Mine turned out a little "soft"...more like a drizzle. But was really good on a basic, dense white cake. We drizzled it over: Simple White Cake SUBMITTED BY: SCOTTOSMAN and it was sooo good! Everyone agreed it was great! Love it!

Made as is, I did give 4 stars because I'm not a fan of almond extract. Without the almond extract, 5 stars. Made this as a trial frosting for LTH's cookie dough cupcakes. I will probably use this frosting because it wasn't so sweet but without the almond extract and less heavy cream.

If I could give this ten stars, I would. This is my new go-to frosting. I love it! Light and airy, yet substantial enough to taste delish! Thanks for sharing!!

This frosting tasted great! I used it to make a Strawberry Shortcake and it tasted/looked amazing! ***Word of advice! DO NOT MAKE THE NIGHT BEFORE!!!!*** I did this and it was perfect and stiff would have definately held my cake, I put it in the fridge to do the cake in the morning, but the frosting deflated...oops! Other than that...AWESOME!

This frosting is soooo good and easy to make. I used it on chocolate cupcakes, but it would be even better on red velvet cake or as the submitter said, with fresh fruit.

I love whipped cream frosting but the softness always poses a problem when frosting a cake for decorating. But this recipe achieved my expectations. I did substitute macarpone cheese for the cream cheese and it worked beautifully. I kept the sugar the same. But, as always, added more vanilla :) The macarpone has an excellent airiness about it yet very sturdy and without the tanginess that cream cheese can add. Absolutely delicious and worked great for frosting. Be careful though when adding coloring for as you continue to whip, it will turn to cottage cheese like texture. so stir gently!

Very good frosting! I did, however try to make this on a very humid day and it "broke". The first time was awesome and loved by all! I will use this again and again! Just make sure you use cold bowl and beaters in summer!

Delicious and plentiful, but not quite sturdy enough for hot weather, especially if it needs to travel. I didn't use light cream cheese and wonder if that or a higher percentage of cream cheese would make it even sturdier.

Awesome frosting! I would put 1/4 tsp of almond extract next time as it was a little too strong for me. Great recipe!
