Frosting for Christmas Tree Cupcakes

Serve this showy dessert this holiday season. Christmas Tree Cakes are laden with snowy frosting and sprinkled with sanding sugar. Save some sugar to create beds of "snow" for serving.

Ingredients

Makes 2 cups, enough for 12 trees

  • 16 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium speed until very smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Add sugar, and beat for 2 minutes. Beat in vanilla. Use immediately.
