For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light. If you prefer a tangier frosting, add a squeeze of lemon juice. The frosting can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow it to soften slightly before using. For a smoother frosting, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened.
