- 4 cups powdered sugar sifted, as needed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Using a hand and beaters or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter on medium-low speed until smooth and creamy, 1 minute.
- Add the cream cheese and mix to combine.

Notes
Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Frosting is best used just after making while it is still soft. If making in advance, store in the refrigerator. Rewhip or mix by hand until light and smooth.
Frosting may be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Allow it to come to room temperature before remixing.
You may also freeze the frosting for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
