How to make Cream Cheese Frosting | Jane’s Patisserie

Start with unsalted block butter at room temperature, wrapped in foil.

Beat the unsalted butter on its own in a bowl.

Add 150 g of icing sugar to the butter and mix together.

Add vanilla bean extract for flavor (optional).

Add 150 g of full fat cream cheese to the mixture.

Mix the cream cheese in, ensuring there is no water content in the cream cheese.

Trust the process as it may look weird at first, but continue mixing until thick and creamy.

Once mixed, the cream cheese frosting is ready to use.
