Erica's Notes:

Just the right amout of orange to add to any cake or brownies.

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, whip the butter and cream cheese together with a hand-held electric mixer. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until it is all combined and smooth.

Beat in the orange zest and juice. Spread over brownies or cake.

At our stores here in Minnesota our powdered sugar comes in a bag not a box. How many oz. do you need for the recipe?

Jane, my guess is 16oz on the powdered sugar and 8oz on the cream cheese. That's what I use when I make cream cheese icing. I hope this helps.

Your Orange Brownies are delicious !! This frosting recipe also goes great with chocolate brownies. Orange and chocolate together is really good. It makes a nice Halloween brownie. Thanx for the great recipes.
