MY FAVORITE LOWER-FAT CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



My Favorite Lower-Fat Cream Cheese Frosting image

I don't like the overly sweet cream cheese frostings out there, so this is perfect for me. I add just a small amount of lemon juice to give a more tart taste, but you would never know it was in there. No softening the cream cheese (though you do have to plan ahead with the butter). No whipping to a certain point that occurs for all of ten seconds before it's ruined.

Time 15m

Yield 1 cake's worth, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces cream cheese, 1/3 fat
5 tablespoons softened butter (I use Smart Balance 50/50)
1 -2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (or more to taste)

Steps:

  • Beat cold cream cheese (not rock solid, but it means you can use it straight out of the refrigerator) with softened butter and vanilla until combined.
  • Gradually add powdered sugar that has been sifted after measuring. Continue to add more sifted powdered sugar until you reach a consistency and sweetness that fits your taste.
  • Add lemon juice.
  • Enjoy.

LOW-FAT CARROT CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Low-Fat Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting image

Tasty yet relatively easy on the waistline. Apple sauce replaces the usual fat to keep the cake moist. If you wanted to make it even lower calorie, you could substitute Splenda for some or all of the sugar.
