Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 3 tbsp Splenda Granulated Sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp heavy cream (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter.
Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and well-combined, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the Splenda Granulated Sweetener, mixing on low speed to avoid splattering. Beat until fully incorporated and the frosting is fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until evenly distributed.
If the frosting is too thick, add heavy cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or other baked goods. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
