I have been using this recipe for years...the only change I've ever made was to use butter instead of margarine and it always gets rave reviews. I only make half a batch at a time ~ that amount is enough to generously frost my cinnabons and a 9x13 carrot cake! If I'm not baking a cake right away I store the leftover in the fridge...just warm to room temp and rebeat before using. It keeps very well. I recently moved and lost my copy and couldn't locate this recipe on copycat...thank you RecipeZaar for "saving the day" for me!

Wow! This is simply amazing! I cut all ingredients in half because it makes so much more than we could use! My family drools over this one!

As we are not cream cheese lovers, I cut back the cream cheese by half and add fluff. It makes this icing so creamy and gooey!

This was SOOOOOO good! Used it to spread over cinnamon rolls made with left over dough. I did half the recipe and I used salted butter instead of margarine....STILL AMAZING!
