If you are like me, buttercream frosting can be too sweet, but cream cheese frosting sometimes isn’t sweet enough! This recipe is half buttercream and half cream cheese, which gives it the perfect balance of sweetness & tang! It is also a breeze to make! I hope you love this Chocolate Cream Cheese recipe as much as I do!
