Cream Cheese Frosting

This is a basic recipe for making
the standard cream cheese frosting.
This will make enough to frost a 9" cake.

Ingredients:
2 8 oz. cream cheese
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup powdered sugar

Directions:
Allow butter and cream cheese to come to room temperature.

Slowly add softened cream cheese to butter mixture
in small pieces to decrease any chance of lumps.
