Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Frosting is really EASY to make with a light and fluffy texture, made with only four simple ingredients and ready in under 10 minutes!
Add cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla to the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Cream everything together on medium-low speed until completely combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
Using the whisk attachment on medium-high speed, very slowly add the cream down the side of the mixing bowl. After the cream is completely added, set the mixer on high speed for about 2-3 minutes.
Once the frosting forms stiff peaks, turn the mixer off. Store the frosting in the refrigerator until ready to use.
