Cream Cheese Frosting
Silky, smooth, and perfectly tangy. I love this cream cheese frosting to top any dessert especially this cake!

- 2 cups Unsalted Butter At room temperature
- 8 oz Cream Cheese Cool
- 6 cups Powdered (confectioners) Sugar Sifted
In the bowl of your electric stand mixer, beat butter using the paddle attachment until smooth and creamy approximately 1-2 minutes.
Add in cold cream cheese and mix until combined.
With the mixer on low, add in sifted powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and mix until light and fluffy- about 2-3 minutes.
Cream cheese buttercream can become extremely soft, so make sure not to over mix. Soft buttercream will be challenging to apply to your cake.
