This is the perfect easy frosting recipe without butter! Why this recipe works I wanted to make a cream cheese frosting that is still rich and decadent but doesn’t just taste like a bunch of whipped butter like so many other cream cheese frosting recipes. I always found that recipes using butter ended up tasting too heavy of butter flavor. It is also delicious spread on my Snickerdoodle Cookies without cream of tartar and on my super Soft Gingerbread Cookies! It is a great cake frosting with no butter.

Tip: If you want a frosting that is a bit looser for swooping or spreading on cookies, just add a tiny bit of milk at the end. Looser icings can droop and fall when designs are piped. The piped decorations hold their shape, but still taste light and smooth in your mouth. The thicker consistency without milk is necessary for piping out of a decorating bag, but also works for spreading on top of a cupcakes and cake. I haven't added any milk to this version because I use it for piping decorations as well as filling cake layers and icing. Plus, eliminating the milk results in an ultra fluffy frosting rather than a thick and creamy one.
