Ooey, and gooey... pure delight. This is an excellent icing for carrot cakes as well as your favourite vanilla cake.
151 g butter, unsalted and room temperature |
330 g cream cheese, room temperature |
10 ml vanilla extract |
780 g icing sugar |
Start by beating the butter, cream cheese and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Beat it for about 60-90 seconds or until everything is really well combined.
Next add your powdered sugar (icing sugar) and slowly beat this into the butter/cream cheese mixture. Start by mixing it on really low speed so that you don't create a large cloud of icing dust everywhere.
Once the powdered sugar is well combined, beat it on high until really well blended and a nice smooth texture.
Use immediately or store in the fridge for later use. Can be refrigerated for up to a week and a half.
