Ingredients
- 1/2 cup salted butter at room temperature
- 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 pound powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place very soft butter and a very soft cream cheese into the bottom of a large bowl.
- On top of that, pour powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
- Use an electric mixer or stand mixer with the whisk attachment and mix it all together on low speed until completely smooth and thick. At first, it might seem like the powdered sugar won't all mix in, but as you stir and work it together with the hand mixer, it will surely come together.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl, increase to medium speed if desired and mix again briefly to make sure it's fully smooth.
- Use as desired.
