Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 7 oz Marshmallow fluff
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and unsalted butter using a handheld or stand mixer set to medium speed. Mix until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and a small pinch of salt to the bowl. Mix for an additional 30 seconds to incorporate.
Spoon the marshmallow fluff into the bowl and mix on medium speed until fully combined with the cream cheese mixture, about 1 minute.
Gradually add the powdered sugar to the mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, mixing on low speed to prevent a sugar cloud. Once all the sugar is added, mix on medium speed for another 2 minutes until the frosting is smooth and fluffy.
Taste the frosting and adjust sweetness or saltiness to your preference, if needed.
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or cookies, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Allow chilled frosting to come to room temperature and rewhip briefly before using.
