Cream Cheese Frosting

I love cream cheese frosting, it can be a bit zesty if you like, either way it is super easy and super yummy! This makes a large quantity, when I made it last I frosted a 30cm round banana cake and 12 cupcake/mini muffins, and had enough to do at least 12 more!! So you may want to halve the quantities (:

Cream Cheese Frosting 

Ingredients:
  • 1 tub of Tofutti "Better Than Cream Cheese"
  • 1/4 cup Nuttelex
  • 500g icing sugar
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract/lemon juice/orange juice/lime
  • The zest of 1 lemon/orange/lime (optional, but recommended if using citrus juice instead of vanilla, which is what I usually do).
Method:

  1. Allow cream cheese to soften on the bench for a little while before you are ready to make the frosting.
  2. Place all ingredients in a bowl/bowl of mixer/bowl of food processor and mix until combined. Done! You may want to add your flavourings according to taste rather than quantity.
  3. If you aren't using the mix immediately transfer to an air tight container and pop into the fridge until ready. It can be stored like this for a few days or so.
