Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened and at room temperature
- 1/4 cup salted butter softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar also known as confectioners sugar
- 2-4 tablespoons of heavy cream milk is okay too
Instructions
- Beat together the cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl until completely combined and smooth.
- Beat in the vanilla, then add in the powdered sugar, slowly beating it in,
- Add in the cream,, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. You can make it pourable, but still thick, or make it more like an icing, it all depends how much cream you add to thin it out.
- Use the icing to glaze cinnamon buns (it's best to use when they are still warm in the pan) or make it slightly thinner and glaze cakes with it by pouring over the top.
