1 (8 oz) Pkg Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 C Butter, softened
4 C Confectioners Sugar
1 t Vanilla Extract (the REAL stuff!)
Cream together until smooth.
Tip: I usually set the butter and cream cheese out on the counter when I start making the cake so they have plenty of time to soften. This makes the ingredients really easy to cream.
To ice the cupcakes pictured below, I used a piping bag (the fancy Ziploc kind of course) and iced an outline circle - leaving about 0.25" spacing from the cupcake edge. I then just swirled the icing around the cupcake and angled the tip out a little so it pushed the icing more to the edge without pushing it all the way over. I hope this makes sense...pictures next time if I can!
