Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting

Cream Cheese - 225g (8oz or 1 cup)Butter (Unsalted) - 115g (4oz or 1 stick)Icing Sugar (confectioner's sugar) - 375g (13.25oz or 3 cups)Vanilla Extract - 1 Tsp

Don't forget to refrigerate to get the best consistency! Some cream cheese frosting recipes are too sloppy for me. I don't have access to good block cream cheese and by adding the softer cream cheese later it seems to keep the recipe firm enough to pipe nicely.
