Cream Cheese Frosting

I made up Ethan’s birthday cake and to keep things simple I had bought tub frosting to put on it. I pulled it out of the tub and whipped it up to make it easier to smooth it onto the cake and I made the mistake of tasting it. YUCK! Tub frosting is just so nasty! I just couldn’t make myself put it on the cake. So the morning of the party I quickly whipped up this delicious home made frosting, and it was just SO much better. I actually enjoyed licking the rubber spatula when I was done frosting the cake! 😉
