Ingredients

    8 oz Cream Cheese
    .25 cup Butter, unsalted
    2 cup, unsifted Powdered Sugar
    2 tsp Cardamom, ground
    1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Tips

The website says 3 cups of powdered sugar, we put 2 cups in. I'd suggest tasting the frosting after each addition to get the consistency and flavor you'd like.


Directions

1. Mix cream cheese and butter until creamy and light.
2. Mix in powdered sugar one cup at a time. You can add more or less to get your desired consistency.
3. Mix in cardamom and vanilla until fully integrated.
4. Pipe or slather onto your cupcakes.

Serving Size: It's made to go with 12 cupcakes, but this could probably cover double that.
