cream cheese drizzle or glaze
We love cream cheese frosting, but sometimes it's just too heavy for certain baked goods. I tried a lot of things with the powdered sugar "glaze", but it always tasted chalky to me. No matter what I did, adding butter, cream, so on and so forth, it never tasted right. So into my kitchen marches this block of cream cheese. And it says to me, "Why didn't you just ask me"? Um, yeah. Easy Peasy. Try it on your next bundt, or anything else! You won't be disappointed!

How To Make cream cheese drizzle or glaze
-
1Whisk these ingredients together with a wire whisk. No need to dirty your mixer for this. Just make sure they are all incorporated. Set aside.
-
2When your bundt cake or whatever you are frosting has cooled, put this glaze into the microwave and gently heat it until it is of pourable consistency, stir it now and then to keep it smooth. Then, using a large spoon or ladle, pour it over your target! I use a large spoon and let it flow down both sides because I am ...well, I won't use the word here, you know, perfectionist?
