I thought I would give this icing it's own post, as I found it has been the best cream cheese icing I've tasted so far!
It's creamy, perfect to pipe with, and not sloppy like some can be.
It was originally posted to go with the strawberry cheesecake muffins (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=13697.msg303973#msg303973)....but it would be perfect for anything calling for a CC icing.
Cheesecake Cream (cream cheese icing)
150g cream cheese
1/3 cup (50g) icing sugar, sifted
1/2 cup (125ml) thickened cream (don't use Woolies brand, it's too runny. Good result with bulla)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Add the cream cheese, icing sugar, thickened cream & vanilla extract into jug.
Mix 20 seconds, speed 4. Scrape jug & mix another 20 seconds, speed 4, until smooth.
Transfer & pop in fridge until needed.
This quantity was enough to pipe 16 muffins.

Bonsai - I did a variation of this recipe using an idea I got from lobstersquad's very clever food blog. She mixes 250g of cream cheese and 200g of melted chocolate together (white if you want to colour it). It's quite soft when it's mixed but firms up a lot as it cools and could be piped.

Thanks Maddy, if it tastes as good as it looks it will be fantastic

Good idea Maddy. Makes it easier to search.

Thanks Maddy. I hate it when you think you know where things are and then you spend ages looking for it.
