 Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting:

What you need:

• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 3 -3 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
• 1/2 cup mashed drained fresh strawberries

What you do:

Blend together the cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer on low speed until combined, about 30 seconds.

Add 3 cups powdered sugar, gradually, and the mashed strawberries; blend frosting again on low speed until the sugar is incorporated, 1 minute.
