Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2sticks) (226g) unsalted butter, softened ( do not soften in microwave)
• 3 (8 ounce) (226g) full fat cream cheese (total weight of cream cheese 678g) do not use reduced fat cream cheese or cream cheese in tub containers (do not soften in microwave)
• 3 cups (343g) powdered sugar
• 2 teaspoons (8g) vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons (4g) apple pie spice **( if you do not have apple pie spice, see below)

Directions

• Put the softened butter in the bowl of your mixer and mix until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, apple pie spice and vanilla. Beat on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes (longer if using a hand mixer) until light and fluffy. Scrape the bowl mid-way through. Add pieces of softened cream cheese to the mixing bowl. The cream cheese should be soft enough that it combines easily into the butter/powdered sugar mixture. Beat on low/medium speed about 1 minute or until the cream cheese is blended in. Makes 6 cups frosting Use immediately or refrigerate. If you have beaten too long and it is too soft to pipe, just refrigerate for about 15 minutes and let it firm up again. ** You can make your own Apple Pie Spice by combining: 1 1/2 teaspoon (3g) cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon (2g) nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon (1g) allspice and two dashes of cloves, stir to blend.
