This is a thick twist on our Cream Cheese Icing and is perfect for our Carrot Cake Cupcakes, Banana Cupcakes and Pumpkin Cupcakes.
We Love Something Sweet!
Frosting is of course the “icing on the cake”! And today’s tasty cinnamon cream cheese frosting is famously paired with desserts like our Banana Cupcakes. Not only is this frosting so creamy and delicious, but the hint of cinnamon adds the perfect amount of spice to enhance any cake or cupcake. Why we love it:
Slather on everything. From classic Carrot Cake or Cinnamon Rolls to Pumpkin Cake, this frosting pairs perfectly with a variety of sweets. SO creamy. The cream cheese and butter make a thick, creamy, flavorful frosting. The cinnamon! The warm flavor of cinnamon pairs perfectly with the tanginess of cream cheese, creating a frosting that’s both sweet and slightly tangy. A big batch. This recipe makes enough to frost an entire recipe of cupcakes, but can easily be doubled depending on how high you want to pile the frosting!
