How to Decorators Cream Cheese Icing Recipe (4 Steps)
While many people prefer cream cheese icing over buttercream, decorators shy away from it because of the softness. The following recipe makes a stiffer version of the traditional cream cheese icing, and will be easy to decorate with. Happy Eating!!
Things You'll Need
- 1-8oz box of cream cheese
- 1 lb of powdered sugar
- 1 cup of vegetable shortening
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2-5 tbl water
Instructions
-
First you want to set out your cream cheese, at room temperatur for a little while and let it get a little soft. It is best not to microwave your cheese.
-
Next you will want to put your shortening and extract in the bowl. I like to put the wet ingredients in first, it seems like the mixture blends better. Then add your sugar and mix on low speed.
-
Now cut your block of cream cheese into small cubes, add a few at a time to your bowl. Continue mixing.
-
Adding one tablespoon of water at a time, continue to mix and add water until desired consistency is reached. Please read the tips and warnings about reaching the proper consistency.
