This is a wonderful cream cheese frosting that goes great with carrot cake, red velvet cake, chocolate cake, or yellow cake...you could serve it on a rock and it would taste good :).

Ingredients
  • 2 packages cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 5 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 TBSP water or milk

Directions
  1. Cream butter and cream cheese on high speed
  2. add the rest, until smooth and shiny (Be careful while adding the powdered sugar, unless you want to wear it. Putting a towel over your mixer will help keep the dust in the bowl).
  3. this is easier to work with when it is a little chilled
  4. if it's too warm, it will run down the sides of the cake
  5. refigerate if not serving immediately

This looks good. I'm looking for a recipe for a birthday, want to make some sort of an impressive cake with walnuts spotlighted (favorite of birthday person). This sounds like it would be a great frosting for such a cake, now to find the cake recipe....
