Cream Cheese Sour Cream Frosting
Instructions:
- Use an electric mixer to beat the butter, cream cheese, and brown sugar in a large bowl until creamy and smooth, about 3 minutes.
- Add the sour cream and vanilla; continue beating until velvety, about 1 minute.
- Turn off the beaters, add 5 cups confectioners’ sugar, and beat on low until smooth.
- Scrape down and remove the beaters. Stir in the remaining confectioners’ sugar in 1â„4-cup increments with a rubber spatula until a smooth, rich frosting forms—it will be a little silkier than some icings, but will hold its shape when mounded on the spatula.
- Spread evenly over the cooled cake with an offset or rubber spatula.
