Cream Cheese Frosting
- Three 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
- 5 cups sifted confectioners sugar
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- In a standing electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand held electric mixer in a large bowl, mix the cream cheese and butter at low speed until incorporated.
- Add the sugar and vanilla.
- Increase the speed to high, and mix until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
- Store in the refrigerator before using, until it is somewhat stiff, about 15 minutes.
- The frosting may be stored in the refrigerator for 3 days.
