Notes

  • I made half the above dose and got 34 mini cupcakes (3.5 cm – 1 ¼ inch in diameter).
  • I made the cupcakes in advance and froze them. I thawed them at room temperature the day of the party and frosted them before serving.
  • Use only full fat cream cheese. I tried it with reduced fat cream cheese, but the frosting was way too soft and had to make it again!
