Easy, Creamy, Fluffy Homemade Cream Cheese Frosting
I’m not a big fan of frostings. Most of them are just waaay to sweet and completely overpower whatever you put it on. However I LOVVVVE this homemade cream cheese frosting recipe.
This frosting is sweet but not overly sweet. I can eat a spoonful without gagging. It’s quick, easy, fluffy, creamy and spreads with ease! I love that I can still taste the cream cheese in this recipe. Once you’ve made this frosting, you’ll realize what an insult store bought cream cheese frostings are.
Nothing can take the place of a frosting made with real butter baby!!! I use this homemade cream cheese frosting recipe for my red velvet cakes, carrot cakes, ice cream cakes, chocolate cakes and whatever else tastes good with a cream cheese frosting.

what exactly is a “stick” of butter? how about some measurements?
A stick of butter is about 113gm. Which is approximately 0.5 cup of butter.
It is a 1/2 cup of butter
This recipe is the bomb! My family ate it up just as soon as I put it out!
Can someone please tell me how I can substitute butter milk? I live in a small town and store doesn’t carry it. Thanks so much
I’m gettin’ hungry
You can add 2 tablespoons of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. Wait 5 minutes and use
You can use regular milk and lemon juice to substitute for buttermilk…Google the amounts
