Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting

Source
Pat's Family Recipe Cookbook (handwritten, p. 4)

From the handwritten pages of Pat’s Family Recipe Cookbook.

Ingredients

  • 2 containers (8 oz each) whipped cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup baking cocoa
  • 4 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Chopped unsalted pistachios, toasted (optional)

Steps

No method was written on this card — only the ingredient list.

Notes

  • ⚠️ The card records ingredients only, with no directions. Steps to be confirmed or added (likely: beat cream cheese and butter, blend in cocoa, gradually add sugar and vanilla, then top with pistachios — but this is not written on the card, so it’s left out rather than guessed).
  • “From the Kitchen of” was left blank on this card, so contributor is unfilled.
