Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoon Butter softened
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese softened
  • 3 Cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Butterscotch Syrup

Instructions

  • Take the softened unsalted butter and softened cream cheese, place in the bowl of a stand mixer or a bowl that is safe to use a hand mixer. Beat for 2 minutes so it starts to get fluffy.
  • Cream your butter mixture and sugar:Add the powdered sugar and beat for 3 minutes until it gets fluffy. Add the butterscotch syrup and beat a minute more. If you feel like your butterscotch icing is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of milk (or cream) and continue to beat. Do this until it reaches the consistency that you like.
  • Decorate:Fill your icing into a piping bag (preferably a reusable one!) and pipe the butterscotch icing onto cakes, cupcakes, or into the center of cookies.
