Food Processor Cream Cheese Frosting

Come Check out the
 Pretty Packages Party!
Going on thru November 6th.

This is the quickest and best recipe for Cream Cheese Frosting I've found.  I used it when I made these crazy good Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes.  When you put this frosting together, be sure the cream cheese is COLD...not room temperature.  The butter can be either.  Also, be sure that you don't OVERPROCESS.  It may come out grainy and not hold its shape very well.


Cream Cheese Frosting

8 oz cream cheese, cold, cut into even chunks
3 - 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter, room temp or cold, cut into even chunks
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted (this step is a MUST)

Combine above ingredients in food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.

Recipe as is well frost 12 - 14 cupcakes with "big" frosting.  Double recipe for 24 cupcakes or for 2-3 layer cake.

Perfect on, well, just about everything!  Smiles!
