Let’s talk about frosting, shall we?
Yes. Let’s.
When I made my Pop Pop’s Zucchini Chocolate Cake yesterday, I decided that a homemade cake really called for a homemade icing. So I used his recipe for Cream Cheese Frosting, the same frosting that I remember being with this cake growing up. It’s very simple – enjoy!
Cream Cheese Frosting
3-4 ounces Cream Cheese (room temperature)
1/2 cup Butter (room temperature)
2 cups Powdered Sugar
1 tablespoon Vanilla
Start by creaming together the cream cheese and the butter …
Stir in the vanilla and then add the powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time.
Frosting!
I’m not sure if this is necessary, but I have been keeping the cake refrigerated because of the cream cheese in the frosting.
Oh gracious. I may need to cut another sliver tonight.

Ok Twin, this looks amazing. I love anything related to zucchini, or chocolate, or cream cheese. So I will be making this.
Oh dear cream cheese frosting is my weakness. Ok well maybe wine, french fries, and brownies are also my weaknesses. But this frosting definitely makes the top 5.
