I'm sure someone out there might have a better answer, but I would try adding Lorann Cream Cheese flavoring to buttercream. I haven't tried that specific flavor, but the other Lorann oils I've used have been delicious. I worry about real Cream Cheese turning quickly in the hot weather. If it's going to be out long enough to be effected by the humidity I would guess that might be too long not to spoil. |

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY. I don't know if the markets here on Guam carry that brand. I'll check. Thanks Fullhouse.
Here's the recipe I used
1 - 8 oz. Philadelphia Cream Cheese (at room temperature)
1 stick (½ c.) Butter (at room temperature)
½ tsp. Vanilla Extract
¾ c. Sifted Powdered Sugar
maybe I over beat the cream cheese? what kind of butter would be good to use in icing, unsalted?
Anymore advise? Anyone? |

unsalted butter if the recipe doesn't specify
For hot weather stability I'd recommend using a recipe that includes shortening. I was about to post the link to earlene's too, but my computer crashed and she beat me to it! Great advice from JanH as always  |
