Favorite Cream Cheese Frosting (Light and Fluffy)

This frosting was part of another recipe I tried. The recipe turned out good, but what stood out to me was this beautifully light and creamy frosting. It is sort of a mix between cream cheese frosting and whipped cream and I just love it! Of course, there is a place for the denser, sweeter cream cheese frosting but this has become a favorite of mine.

LIGHT AND FLUFFY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

(found here)

Ingredients:

8 ounces cream cheese softened

¾ cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

pinch of salt

2 cups heavy whipping cream

In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and pinch of salt together until smooth and creamy. Add in whipping cream and beat again until smooth and stiff peaks start to form. Spread topping layer over cake.

*Makes a very thick layer on 9x13 cake or a thinner (but not too thin) layer on a sheet cake.
