How To Make kks creamcheese frosting
-
Step 1grab a large mixing bowl. use a rubber spatula to soften cream cheese (make sure it is room temp.), gradually add the softened butter and vanilla until combined. (I use a mixer on the lowest setting and mix for about 5 min using a rubber spatula to scrap down the sides to ensure even mixing)
-
Step 2gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar. (Add more if you wish until you reach a good consistency for spreading)
-
Step 3add whipping cream (optional, depending on what consistency you're looking for; the whipping cream is great for piping icing for cupcakes)
