Most cream cheese frostings are pretty good, but this one will knock your socks off with the addition of just one different ingredient. My daughter in law, an all time "watch what you eat", run at least 3 times a week, keep that youthful lithe body... well, she couldn't resist this. She said it was frosting worth running an extra mile for! So it's family approved and tested, LOL.
