I know Bonny started this thread for her son's bday but I think it was JPT that suggested the cream cheese and whipping cream frosting recipe. I used it on cupcakes I made today. RAVE REVIEWS! It was so good. Light and not sickeningly sweet. Thanks everyone!

1 bar of cream cheese, two cups of whipping cream, half a cup of sugar, two teaspoons of vanilla. Put in a bowl and whip until stiff peaks form.

The only thing I would add is that you probably need to keep it refrigerated after it's done. Just guessing but I can't imagine leaving cream cheese and whipping cream at room temp for any long amount of time would yield good results.

I whipped it all at once. I put all four items in the bowl and whipped. It took a few minutes, literally just a very few minutes, and it was all fluffy and peaked. It was NOT hard.
While I was frosting the cupcakes though I dropped the spatula on my shirt and down my pants. Made a mess there! That was the worst part of all of it.
