How to Make Buttercream Cream Cheese Decorator Frosting
- In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes using a hand mixer).
- Beat in the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt, and beat until well combined.
- If the frosting is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk or cream, one at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Frost your cakes or cupcakes. For best results, let the frosting set uncovered for several hours to firm up before covering loosely for transport or storage.
