Frosting
1 package cream cheese (8 oz)
1 stick butter (8 tablespoons)
4 cups confectioners sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons imitation vanilla (I think if you use pure vanilla extract cut it to 1 tsp)
I threw all the ingredients in a bowl and mixed with a spoon (thats right, by hand) until the confectioners sugar was incorporated. I noticed there were a lot of lumps so I got out the hand held mixer, and used it on med. for less then a minute. (that added SUCH a smooth and light texture!)
