"Baking from scratch is a new venture for me. I came up with this easy, but yummy frosting. The flavors are subtle. I hope you enjoy."

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 12 muffins

ingredients

• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1⁄4 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon lemon extract
• 1 teaspoon coconut rum (I used Captain Morgan)
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons milk (I used whole milk)

directions

1. Cream butter and honey together in a large bowl.
2. Then add milk gradually (you may not need to use the entire 1 1/2 tsps, it all depends on the consistency you want to achieve).
3. Finally add the lemon extract and coconut rum and blend into frosting.
4. Frost your cupcakes or cake.
5. I found that the frosting thickened a bit once it settled. Also, I feel it tasted much better after I had chilled the cupcakes a bit.
6. Enjoy.
