Cream Cheese Frosting

I use this cream cheese frosting on cakes
and cupcakes because it's not too sweet and
it can stand up to being at room temperature
for a good two hours before serving.

Ingredients:
2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese
6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3-4 cups powdered sugar

Directions:
Place the cream cheese and butter
in a large mixing bowl.
Beat with an electric mixer on
low speed until well combined.
Add three cups powdered sugar
and beat on low until mixed in.
Increase the mixer speed to medium
and beat until the frosting is fluffy.
You may add more powdered sugar
if needed to make a spreadable consistency.
After frosting, place the cupcakes or cake
in the refrigerator until frosting is set.
