Light Cream Cheese Icing Recipes
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING (LIGHTENED UP VERSION)
Got this recipe from Cooks Country, its a lightened up version of cream cheese frosting, but what it lacks in fat content it makes up for in taste. It is light and delicious! Try it on carrot cake. NOTE: Someone asked about fat free cream cheese, this recipe is from Cooks Country and they do a good job of explaining how recipes are developed, they note that they did try fat free cream cheese but taste testers found it to be un-natural tasting and gummy, and the "light" cream cheese was runny. With the neufchatel cream cheese they cut the fat to 1/3 but still got a creamy good tasting frosting.

CLASSIC CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This classic frosting couldn't be easier to make and is a must for finishing red velvet and carrot cakes (or a batch of cupcakes). Using vanilla bean paste gives it a pretty speckled look, but if you don't have it on hand, pure vanilla extract will lend the same flavor.

A few ounces adds creaminess to dips, entrées, and even desserts. We typically recommend 1/3-less-fat cream cheese over full-fat. You still get all the rich body and creaminess of the luxurious cheese without the calories and fat. Be sure to wrap up your extra cream cheese with plastic wrap to keep air from drying out the cheese.
