For a tangier flavor, use a full-fat cream cheese. Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for preventing lumps and ensuring a smooth frosting. If the frosting is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk or cream at a time until desired consistency is reached. If the frosting is too thin, add a tablespoon of confectioners' sugar at a time until desired consistency is reached. Consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or other flavorings for a unique twist.
