Ingredients
- 3 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 3/4 cups butter softened
- 1 pinch salt if using salted butter omit the salt
- 3 tbsp heavy cream
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 3/4 cups Cadbury Mini Eggs
Instructions
- Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer and a large bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese.
- Add the cream, vanilla extract and pinch of salt.
- Add the powdered sugar and mix at slow speed.
- Keep mixing, until well combined.
- Increase speed and beat until smooth and whipped. Approximately 2 to 3 minute.
- If the consistency is off, add a bit of cream if too thick or a bit of icing sugar if too thin. It's much easier to correct the consistency before adding the mini eggs.
- Add the crushed mini eggs, and stir until incorporated.
Notes
- Make sure that the mini egg pieces are not too big.
