This Delicious and Sweet Spread is one you don’t want to miss.
I first discovered sweet cream cheese spread at a friend’s son’s birthday party several years ago. It was so delicious I had to get the recipe. Turns out, I lost the actual recipe my friend used. However, after making some cake frosting for a cake months later, I created my own little experiment adapting the frosting recipe into this sweet spread. The dash of vanilla adds just a little extra burst of vanilla sweetness and a splash of heavy cream make this spread smooth and fluffy. Check out the full recipe below.
This Sweet Cream Cheese Spread is so versatile too! Use it as a spread on sweet toast, or a sweet bagel. You can use it as a dip for apples, pears, strawberries, blueberries, or any berries. Spread some on freshly baked cinnamon rolls, sweet Hawaiian rolls, or biscuits. I used this recipe for dipping braided pretzels at my son’s birthday party. Since it was a dinosaur themed party, I called it ‘Bones and Plaster.’ Ultimately Bones and Plaster is a fancy way to call a party tray of honey braided pretzels with a sweet cream cheese spread/dip. Of course the name can be changed for any occasion or theme. Ready to make it yourself? Check it out below.
