Move over Chocolate...


I have discovered my new favourite sweet thing. No, it's not a fabulously hot neighbour...but that would be equally as wonderful as Cream Cheese Frosting.
OMG. Yummmmm.
During my baking madness for Hallowe'en I found a homemade cream cheese frosting recipe online. Yes, I got it from the Internet Bank & not my great aunt's cookbook.
It is fabulous on everything. I made up a batch & kept it in the fridge for 3weeks, adding it random items when I was having a sugar/cheese cake craving.
This Frosting is the best of 2worlds. It's like cheese cake in frosting form.

8oz cream cheese softened
1/4 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
1.5 tsp vanilla

Bowl: blend softened C.C. w/ butter till creamy. Mix in Vanilla. Stir in sugar.

It is great as a filling for cookie sandwiches. Make round sugar cookies, spread a layer of C.CH. Frosting between cookies & smoosh together. YUM. Your very own homemade cream sandwich cookies. My sister & I ate too many of these creations.
For Hallowe'en I made eyeball sugar cookies & then created Eyeball Sandwiches.
Haha. So good.
