Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. (2 minutes)

02

Step
4 mins

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat until light and fluffy. (3-4 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Add the diced strawberries and continue to beat until evenly distributed. (1 minute)

04

Step
2 mins

Gradually add the sifted confectioners' sugar, beating on low speed at first to prevent a sugar cloud. (2 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until the frosting is smooth, creamy, and reaches your desired consistency. Add more confectioners' sugar if needed to thicken, or a tablespoon of milk or cream to thin. (2-3 minutes)

06

Step

Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow to come to room temperature and re-whip before using.

For a more intense strawberry flavor, consider using freeze-dried strawberry powder in addition to the fresh strawberries.
Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for achieving a smooth, lump-free frosting.
Adjust the amount of confectioners' sugar to suit your taste preferences. Some may prefer a sweeter frosting, while others prefer a tangier flavor.
For a smoother consistency, ensure that both the cream cheese and butter are fully softened before beating.
