  1. This was very nice, and very easy to make. Actually it was creamy, yet the cream cheese gave it more density. I used it on a sheet cake. What can I say? A perfect ending that no one could resist. Thanks for sharing you MIL's recipe.
     
  2. wow, what a delightful easy recipe.... I absolutely loved it... I will be keeping this recipe as a family favorite... thank you for posting
     
  3. I made this to frost a 2-layer apple caramel cake. Frosted the cake and then drizzled the top with caramel. It is sooo good! I love both cream cheese frosting and any kind of whipped cream/cool whip..so this is perfect for me. Super easy to make, a definite keeper! Thank you!
     
  4. Not sure what is happening to some of my reviews, seems this one never showed up.. This frosting was excellant,taste and texture..Did not change a thing. Your mother-in-law sure passed down a winner.
     
  5. Not only is it easy & quick to make, it is absolutely out of this world. I make this often - everyone who has tasted it, loved it!
