Ingredients
Frosting Ingredients
- 1 cup softened cream cheese
- 1/2 cup salted softened butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp raspberry puree
Instructions
- Prepare Cream Cheese and Butter: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and salted butter together using a mixer until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add Powdered Sugar Gradually: Slowly add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese and butter mixture in batches, beating well after each addition to incorporate fully and avoid a gritty texture.
- Incorporate Raspberry Puree: Add the raspberry puree to the mixture and continue to beat until the frosting is light, fluffy, and evenly mixed with a consistent pink hue.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese and butter are softened at room temperature to avoid lumps.
- For a smoother raspberry puree, strain seeds before adding to frosting.
- This frosting is best used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Allow refrigerated frosting to come to room temperature and re-whip before using for the best texture.
- If the frosting is too thick, add a teaspoon of milk or cream to loosen it.
