Special Extra

Recipe needed a few adjustments. As is not enough powdered sugar. Needed 4 cups. As is not enough butter. Needed 1 stick. This was the only way to make the frosting stiff enough. After adding the melted white chocolate the cream cheese and butter soften too much. Overall I would make this again; MY WAY.

My husband loves this frosting. I only use 1 cup of powdered sugar and refrigerate it before using it.

Frosting tasted great but was difficult to work with. It was very thin. I would probably use lots of extra powdered sugar next time.
