Fluffy Cream Cheese Frosting
Description
This Fluffy Cream Cheese Frosting recipe mixes well-tempered cream cheese with cold heavy whipping cream, granulated sugar, vanilla bean paste, and almond extract. Using an electric mixer with the whisk attachment creates an aerated frosting with volume and a smooth, light consistency. The vanilla and almond extracts add subtle aromatic depth.
The whipped texture is ideal for spreading or piping on desserts, lending a mildly tangy sweetness from the cream cheese balanced with gentle dairy richness. Its stability allows it to hold shape while still being soft enough to complement delicate cake layers or cupcakes.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream cold
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the bowl of an electric mixer.
- Using the whisk attachment mix on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
