Recipe Collection: Cream Cheese Frosting

admin July 25, 2013

Written by Kate Tietje

Frosting is delicious, but it often has a lot of sugar.  If you’ve been here for a while, you know I’ve made homemade frosting quite a few times.  I’ve made Salted Chocolate Buttercream Frosting, Refined-Sugar Free Vanilla Buttercream, and now Cream Cheese Frosting.

This frosting is very simple; it’s quick and has only four ingredients.  We put it on any cakes (so good on Gluten-Free White Cake), cupcakes (Spice Cupcakes?  Yes, please!), carrot cake waffles, or even use it as a fruit dip!

Cream Cheese Frosting

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 cup powdered sucanat (if you don’t have powdered, just run sucanat through a blender or food processor)

Directions:

Step 1: Add the butter and cream cheese to a medium bowl.

Step 2: Add the vanilla.

Step 3: Beat this mixture together briefly with a hand mixture.  This is easier if the butter and cream cheese are softened.

Step 4: Add the sucanat, then beat again.  That’s it!  Once it’s fully mixed, it’s done!

  1. thinking about using coconut oil instead of butter as I am out of vanilla and that would add a nice, sweet, mild coconut flavor. any thoughts on this?
