  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar spooned and leveled
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cup Hiland heavy whipping cream

Recipe Notes

  • This frosting should be stored in the refrigerator because of the dairy in it for up to 24 hours before the texture might get soft. 
  • Makes enough to pipe 24 cupcakes or fill and frost a double-layer 9-inch cake.
