I have been making cream cheese frosting for many years and it’s always on the runny side when doing it this way. You need to beat the butter till soft and lighter, then add the powdered sugar , mix well and then add the cream cheese last. What a game changer, the icing is 100% better . Try it if you don’t believe me. Then you can add vanilla , or little lemon juice. Let me know if you give it a try. I will never go back to doing it your way ever again. 😊

Wish I read this comment before! Preppy kitchen has never failed me until this frosting 😢

[@guadalupecalvo7613]

Thank you for the advice!! I hace a question, the butter have to be at room temperature??

[@beatricecaldarella6642]

Same problem!!!! Nothing worked to make it nice and firm. I added so much sugar and it’s still runny and way too sweet. Even tried with starch. It just didn’t work. I don’t know how he did it

[@beatricecaldarella6642]

I have tried your way today and it’s perfect! Silky smooth but really firm!

[@wendycollins1363]

@@guadalupecalvo7613 yes butter at room temperature. This method is so much better. 😊

John...new watcher now loyal watcher. I made several of your recipes, especially the desserts, and have wanted to ask if you could include if the same cake recipes could make nice cupcakes and if so maybe how many. If they don't, what can be done to make cupcakes. If the recipe cannot, why or an alternative one for cupcakes.

Hola...al frosting se utiliza queso crema o mantequilla?..gracias❤
