Cream Cheese Frosting

Followed the recipe to the T and the icing came out yummy with plenty for all 3 layers of my humming bird cake!! Wondering what would happen if i used less butter 

Please update this recipe. I just went by what was on here, it being my first time making this and the frosting didn't come out right. Waste of money. Please update cream cheese frosting recipe with the right measurements!!

3 T of butter? It calls for a cup....I already put it in the mixing bowl with the cream cheese  I hope it turns out ok.

I always adjust the butter. I used 3T butter, 1 1/2 or 12 oz. Cream cheese & 2cups powdered sugar. It wasn't runny, great as filling and and so creamy.

Great taste, but for a creamier, thicker frosting I recommend decreasing the butter by half. I have used as little as 2-3 tablespoons successfully.

Tastes great but not good for a layer cake. NOT fluffy, very runny.

Very good taste. Is not a fluffy frosting, so it will work best on a sheet cake. I don't recommend for a layer cake.

Made for a dinner party and got rave reviews.

Amazing, unique flavor. Tasted like one of those rich frostings from an up-scale bakery. Simple to make with few ingredients.

Very sweet, but a great frosting for the Hummingbird cake!!
