Mr. DeMille, the frosting is ready for it's close up.
What? I’m posting on a Sunday? I know, it’s weird. But I was on the Tee Vee this morning. I know, again…weird. More weird that I was up so dang early on a Sunday! Ha ha hee hee. I’m not much of an early riser. I made my semi-famous cream cheese frosting on the show. I realized when they asked that I don’t have a stand-alone post for cream cheese frosting. So I figured I better make one. You know, in case people look for it. Duh.
I made some other things, for the magic of TV…if anyone is interested in the recipes they are here: Nana’s Cinnamon Rolls, James Beard’s Onion Sandwiches, Snickerdoodle Cupcake Hack, and Horseradish Deviled Eggs with Candied Bacon.
Here it is, the superstar “perfect” cream cheese frosting.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 packages cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups confectioner’s sugar
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
Instructions
- In a mixer, thoroughly mix the butter and cream cheese.
- Add sugar, lemon juice and vanilla.
- Mix again.
- This recipe makes enough frosting for 48 cupcakes, halve if needed.

I’ve been on a pretty much sugar-butter-everything-I-live-for-free diet. Now I want to dive into a bowl of this. You looked so cute
Fun!
Sarah, you were great! I’m so happy that I can say I know someone who was on TV! Your cream cheese frosting is the bomb! Everyone should try it, I promise it will be your go to frosting. Taste it on red velvet cupcakes too.
I use this on red velvet all the time! Thanks for watching!
Thanks Sally!
