This is a standard amount of frosting for a three-layer cake; you may make 1 ½ times the recipe or a double-recipe of frosting, if you like it particularly thick between the layers and on top. Ingredients: 8-oz. package cream cheese, softened ½ cup butter (1 stick), softened 16-oz. package confectioner’s sugar (powdered sugar, also called icing sugar) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Combine 8-oz. softened cream cheese with ½ cup softened butter, beating with an electric mixer until smooth. Add a 16-oz. package of confectioner’s sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla, and beat until light and fluffy. Spread between layers, around sides, and over top of a three-layer cake.
