Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting

November, 21st 2020

This Easy 7 Minute Strawberry Cream Cheese frosting recipe is the perfect topping for cakes and other sweet treats. I used Karen Naturals freeze-dried strawberries for this recipe. The freeze-dried berries give this frosting an intense flavor (way more than fresh strawberries) without compromising the frosting’s consistency. Here’s the Betty Crocker Chocolate Swiss Roll Recipe.
