This was good! Piped well, too. I was so happy as it is not so easy to get powdered sugar where I am.

This is a great recipe by itself, and also a good base to play around with. It's quick and easy, and the consistency is perfect for decorating.. I added a drop of maple syrup to mine for a pumpkin cake and my family loved it. Thanks for sharing :)

This is great frosting! I noticed for a lot of people it didn't work and this is because they didn't properly cool their ingredients before they started because I had the same problem until I followed what some of the other reviews said about chilling my ingredients. Its a great light and fluffy, and sweet(but not too sweet) frosting

I have to edit my first review. I made this for my daughter's preschool class and 2 out of 18 children did not like the icing, that is pretty good for a bunch of 3 year olds. I used powdered sugar and did not use the entire cup, but I put 4 tsp of corse sugar in with the whipped cream. it was very yummy and light tasting. I put the icing in the fridge over night before I pipped the minin banana muffins and it pipped very well. I also kept them refidgerated untill they were ready to be eaten. I will for sure use this recipe again although my cream cheese hating son does not like this recipe at all, I think it is a "healthier" alternative to the traditional butter and shortning icing. oh and I used maple flavour instead of vanilla, but you could use pretty much any flavour you like.

Yummy, yummy, yummy! I used this on top of red velvet cupcakes and it was fantastic! A light and fluffy version of cream cheese frosting. Make sure you use the heavy whipping cream, not a substitute, because that's what makes this recipe great.

I thought this was a great frosting. I usually like butter in my cream cheese frosting because I like the sweet/salty flavor, but this is just great. I read a review saying it was too runny, I didn't have a problem with that at all, if it is too runny, you probably didn't whip the cream enough. I whipped it until it was quite thick just so I could pipe it, and it piped great for me. I will definitly use this recipe again.

I have made cream cheese frosting 100x using different recipes. With that being said, I know you have to chill the bowl, beaters, cream cheese at room temp., etc. This recipe was runny. Not thick enough at all.

I really love this recipe. I've used several times now with different recipes. It's easy to make and it's great when the traditional cream cheese frosting is too sweet or overpowers what it's frosting. The tips here are great. I've used powdered sugar and granulated - both work fine, but I prefer the powdered. Light delicious and hold up well. I would not pipe it.

LOVE this frosting. I used it on the two ingredient pumpkin cake recipe from this site. It was a BIG hit with the book club. I will use it from now on as my cream cheese frosting recipe but will probably add a splash of grand marnier. The Boozier the better!

This was relatively easy, not overly sweet, and it got pretty good reviews at work. I think I didn't beat the cream cheese and sugar enough to get it light and fluffy, and my version would never have held up for piping. But I believe it's possible. I never bother with a chilled bowl or beaters for whipped cream - just throw it in the food processor and let it do all the work. Be sure to stop before it separates into butter though =)

This is probably THE BEST frosting I have ever made. The only thing was that when folding we couldn't get everything to really mix together so I ended up beating it at the lowest speed for about a minute and everything mixed perfectly.
