Make It Monday: Cream Cheese Frosting

This is my go-to frosting for banana cake, carrot cake, zucchini cake, spice cake and even the occasional chocolate cake. I do have to tell you that you are not saving money on making this frosting over buying a pre-made tub of it, it will cost you more but not so much more that you should avoid it. By making this homemade you avoid the hydrogenated oil and HFC used n making the store bought tub. Plus, it's super easy to make and tastes DELISH!



Homemade Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup butter
2 C powdered sugar 
1/2 tsp almond extract (or 1 tsp of vanilla extract)

Directions:
Let cream cheese and butter sit out to soften to room temperature.
Whip all ingredients with a mixer until smooth.
Enjoy!
