Classic Cream Cheese Frosting - Recipe by Laura Vitale - Laura in the Kitchen Episode 201

[JooJooHappy]

Thanks a bunch, you ROCK!

[VolcanoDiva]

@usSister Did you blend by hand? Because i know I'm having a hard time with mixing manually(? (Not with electric mixer.)) and getting smooth frosting. Maybe it's sort of same thing, maybe it's just me that's messing it up that way being impatience, but.. yeah xD

[usSisters]

When I made this, it's not as white as it looks here. And then I tasted it, it's very gritty from the sugar. Anybody knows what I've done wrong here??

[Missyplaymate3]

@usSisters What kind of sugar did you use?

[usSisters]

@Missyplaymate3 I followed the recipe and used confectioner sugar.

@VolcanoDiva I used an electric mixer but its still gritty.

Any idea what went wrong??

[electricmoo88]

you belong on the food network :D

[electricmoo88]

can i make `this without the butter?

[mamipoppy]

can I add some cocoa powder to make chocolate frosting?

[cookiesNcream4cathyX]

sometimes i think: when she makes all this food.... who helps her eat it besides her husband?

[cookiesNcream4cathyX]

i wanna lick the spatula!!!

[Nefferello]

your video is cute and helpful

[heeiiii]

1:51 that's what she said

[Aimalicious18]

Is the pot boiling in the background all for looks? lol i've noticed it in many of your videos

[Fufudesu]

@Aimalicious18 She cooks many dishes at once in a day.

[KraftyKoffee]

@Tomyhun It's not supposed to be like that. If it turned out that way, reduce the amount of powdered sugar. I used 1 1/2 cups and I used 7oz/200g of cream cheese. I know that sounds too cheesy but trust me, it'll turn out fantastic! you could add more sugar if you like. pm me and tell me if I helped with your frosting :)

[KraftyKoffee]

@CWebbiewoo I don't think it'll go wrong in any way. I've made cream cheese all the time and I've left in in the fridge for like.. a week already or so and it's still good. I use them to frost my cupcake and the rest I eat with biscuits. yum :9 but although I'm not so sure about this recipe but it calls for the same ingredients so I guess it's okay :D

[andrea080808]

for this frostingg i use cream cheese, butter, sugar and brandy! but im goin to try this recipe

[CWebbiewoo]

Does anyone know if I could make this, leave in the fridge overnight and use the following day, or what that be too long? x

[TomyHun]

I remember making cream cheese frosting once but it turned out pretty bad... you could feel the sugar crystals in it.. it was kinda gross (yes, I used powdered sugar). Or is that how it's supposed to be?

[byhn2]

my frosting turns out yellow not white :/

[pretendthisisfiction]

@byhn2 Cream cheese frosting is always yellowish because of the butter and vanilla so don't worry (: Hers only looks white because of the lighting and the camera

[feepque]

did she just say facial?

[lolliypop123]

@feepque I think she did lol

[valerienguyen392]

oooooooh i will totally make dis, ill double da recipe so i could frost 24 cupcakes for my party

[soccergirlbobo]

@Temmeklemmdemm Ewwwww

[Temmiklemmdemm]

I like to only use cream cheese and butter, no sugar. Because that way it's sort of sour, cause of the cream cheese, so it tastes absolutely fabulous on a sweet cake or something.

[nanethaarcilla]

Love all ur episodes!

[uM1ss]

i originally buy frosting but seems like i didn't have one at home so i made this today added to my cupcakes.. mmmmhmmmm!! SO GOOD!!! thanks so much

[valerikacheli]

She is so awsum all of her recipes look delicious!!

[ZulKoji]

You look so pretty here.

[Yip102]

laura, could i add some blueberry jam into the frosting in order to make it becomes blue?

[ShortyFunsized123]

@Yip102

Im not laura but i think u should just use food coloring because if u add jam the taste will be different

[blueaholic1]

stop the video at 16 seconds she looks funny xD

[EshaniBaral]

How long do you keep it in the fridge?

[iheart3elvis]

hey laura! :) i got a question, why do you use 4 cups of powdered sugar here, but only 2 cups in your carrot cake and red velvet cupcake videos??

[Chipmunkband24]

does it have to be powder suger?

[eleonoraciyinta]

do one on how to make scalloped potatoes!

[MenchacaRawr549]

Wooo BUDDY HAHAHA(^_^)

[anhelodetualiento]

I just did this today

It turns out AWESOME!

[DANCEDARRYLDANCE]

So this is enough for 12 cupcakes? Thank you for sharing this with us! (: Totally making this for our thanksgiving dinner desert!<3

[RainbowManner]

woah BUDDY!

[PeaceSalaam]

U can use fat free cream cheese to make it more healthy :)

[SheMySyd]

please do a marshmallow frosting

thanks

[omar390z]

@SheMySyd its easy mix the icing sugar with some marshmallow spread or melted marshmallow and btw its not that good

[Parsalsa]

@buscando she did red velvet cupcakes already just look in her videos

[Jadz1242]

I love you vids

[MrsSparklez]

You look . Drop .. Dead.. GORGEOUS in this vid

[j95lee]

Do I really need 4 cups for sugar? is 1 cup enough?

[sophianikola]

@j95lee if you didnt need 4 cups of sugar, she would said it in the video.

[swimmachica]

this is soo yummy! thanks for not posting the calories ;)

[SupperSpazzie]

i made this and i could barley get it on the cupcake:)

[synchrogrl18]

Good basic recipe. Definitely follow her advice on refrigerating the cream cheese for at least an hour before spreading on baked good.

[onlyfathskie]

omg you put in so much sugar... O.O

[10cutie207]

@onlyfathskie its a freaking dessert its supposed to have lots of sugar :D thats what makes it good

[ananushi]

lick this spatula while you guys are gone haha

[zanessalover86]

EVERYTIME I watch ur vids always in the mood to cook but not eat ur great

[GrandeCreations]

@littlelily93 I'm in the UK too, and yes i think it is the spreadable stuff :)

[littlelilly93]

Is cream cheese the same as spreadable cheese? i live in the U.K so im not sure

[Joses1222]

I am an asian fan and that's a very nice cream you there it's a shame if someone eats lol

[kitchenaid89]

[dsm4ever100]

woah buddy! lol that looks soooo good

[akshay7711]

u are such a charmer

[Cathiina]

Hey Laura Vitale!

I JUST made your cream cheese frosting - I was a little insecure in the beginning with the definition of "4 cups confectioner flour" - I'm from Denmark and we have different sized cups, but it turned out just like yours, I let my parents taste it, and they said it was so delicious! Now I'm going to continue with your pumpkin cupcakes. I'm very excited about how they'll turn out ^^ I will return! ;p

[AznGurlz3]

You look so pretty in this episode! =]]

[Hollywoodconnectiful]

what happens is... hold on

*licks finger*

You gotta love Laura!

[buscando]

Is it possible for u to do red velvet cake or cupcakes please oh please with a cherry on top

[patissierelove]

Oh my gosh!! I just made the frosting for my cake for church, they loved!

Hahah, just like u laura, i kept licking the spatula!!!!

[PinkPrincess1177]

Could I use confectioners powder instead? Or will it turn out different?

[darealandrew22]

muffins are just ugly cupcakes!!

[iRegie]

haha you're adorable! :D

[camroks3]

can u make yogurt?

[peng80634]

i have a different recipe you just need cream cheese coolwhip and vanilla pudding mix super super easy!!!!!

[Yan2isalwaysHAPPY]

I just broke my healthy diet and made it frosting at home and it's soo good better with a bread or cupcake! YUM!!

[Agmb92]

If it aint unhealthy it aint good! lololol jk

[sarahlouiseduran]

[TheMapleTheory]

[moomoocockatoo]

how long can it stay in the fridge? I need to do a demonstration for class and was wondering if I could make the frosting the night before. would it taste fine the next day?

[selenademilover1000]

@moomoocockatoo Yes, totally. I've made it. A suggestion, keep it covered. It was more fresh when I did that. Hope I helped! ;)

[moomoocockatoo]

@selenademilover1000 Thanks so much!



[selenademilover1000]

@moomoocockatoo Your welcome!

[MissieNina]

SuperKaylyn13 go to her website for each ingredient.

[SuperKaylyn13]

how much of each ingredient???

[NoufHO]

are you okay? you look confused

[HellsBells666100]

I cant wait to try this recipe!! Ur so pretty! I always love what u wear and ur makeup!

[17montego]

This is unhealthy shut up why are you even on here

[paober27jb]

I LOVE HER ATTITTUDE!!! I would love to be her friend!!!

[zuckerbienchenfee]

1:51 ! she said SLOWLY ;D

--------> 1:56 (:

[lauweroos]

food porn!!!

[myhalooma]

my pet peeve is when people lick their fingers and continue to cook and prepare food that other people are gonna eat. Or when they do a taste test with a spoon then dip that same spoon back in and give it a good stir. i know here Laura is doing that to demonstrate how delicious her frosting is. Can't wait to try it out.

[Tifaly85]

@myhalooma at least she doesn't touch the part that she's going to serve =D

[900446]

Marry me<3

[blahblahfreak123]

i dont really care if this is unhealthy i am just proud that Laura is nice enough to share thus recipe

[lazysonglover1]

THIS IS SO UNHEALTHYY! jkjk!! hahaha

[msmommytime]

It's Thanksgiving in Canada this weekend and i'll be making this with your pumpkin cupcakes to take along to family dinners! I do the same as you - make it and take it to someone's house so your not tempted to eat it! That way, I have 1 and i'm done!

[Milegolasss]

I've never tried cream cheese frosting, since it's not common in my country..I made exactly as the recipe but it didn't work for me..I barely felt the cream cheese, it was way to sweat and sugary =/

[RuthiesCupcakes]

[hootmin]

I have a question, when I baked my red velvet cupcakes, why are they crackled up on top and not smooth like the ones you made? :(

[MegaSayachan]
