A basic cream cheese icing.

"This was pretty good. I only put in 4 cups of powdered sugar and it was really sweet. Most of the start to finish time is allowing the cream cheese and butter to soften. I put this on a cinnamon swirl cake." - yome

    I made this recipe with 4 cups sugar... next time I will use 1/2-1 cup more as it came out a little too thin. It tasted wonderful though and I will definately make it again.

    I also only used about 4.5-5 cups powdered sugar. The recipe was enough to ice two layers on my pineapple cake. Very creamy & tasty!
