Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting

 YELLOW CUPCAKES WITH RASPBERRY FILLING and VANILLA CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

I'm not going to write down the recipe for the cupcakes because, well, I just used a box of cake mix and made them according to the package directions. Oh, but I did add some raspberry filling that made them oh so good.

FROSTING
1/2 C butter, room temperature
8oz cream cheese
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 C powdered sugar
1-4 TBSP heavy cream or whole milk

*Combine all ingredients in electric mixer. Cream together until well combined and fluffy. About 3 minutes. If you are piping it you don't want to add too much milk or it will be too runny.

RED VELVET CUPCAKES WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

*If you are making carrot cake cupcakes or red velvet I would recommend adding an additional 8oz of cream cheese and a little more powdered sugar if needed.
