By aohmc

This pretty dessert is super sweet for me and load with sugar! Eat one or two when you have cravings for sweet. For your health, please don't eat too many in one day. It can be used as fondant to decorate your cakes.

Ingredients

• 3 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 3 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 drop of food color (optional)

In a small mixing bowl, mix cream cheese, vanilla and food color with a whisk or spatula. Then add sugar 1 cup at a time and knead with hand.until fully incorporated.
