OK this recipe is AWESOME. Super easy to make and most of the ingredients I had at home. I did however, only used 1 1/2 cups of powered sugar. This goes perfect with my lemon blossom and mini brownie skewers. Wish I could post pics.

Delicious as a light cream cheese flavor icing. Makes the perfect amount to top a 9 x 13 cake. This recipe is also very versatile as you can add cocoa powder or chopped strawberries, or even well drained & crushed mandarin oranges and a touch of orange rind. Use your imagination!

This is the best cream cheese frosting I have ever tasted! I paired it with a lemon cake for my husband's Birthday, and everyone kept coming back for more... Huge success, thank you!
