In a medium mixing bowl using an electric hand mixer beat softened cream cheese until creamy.
8 oz Cream Cheese
Add vanilla extract mix until combined
1 tsp Vanilla extract
Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing thoroughly on medium to low speed. Do not use high speed as you do not want to over mix.
½ cup Powdered Sugar
Take a taste, if not sweet enough add more powdered sugar 1 tsp at a time until desired taste.
If frosting is still too thick you can add a tsp of milk to thin it out. You should not need this but it is an option if the consistency is not what you are looking for.
1 tsp milk
