For many purposes, you will find buttercream and cream cheese frostings can be swapped out for each other. My favorite thing about this recipe is that it's the best of both! You get the smooth, uber-light and fluffy texture of a buttercream, but the quick mix method and classic cream cheese flavor you're looking for too. I promise, once you give this recipe a try, all other cream cheese frostings will be a thing of the past.
