Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting

There's cream cheese frosting and then there's Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting! This frosting is light and fluffy with just enough sweetness to set off the slight tang of the cream cheese. It's easy to make and easy to spread over a cake or even pipe onto cupcakes! But it's even easier to eat by the spoonful!
