2sticks unsalted butter
250g Philadelphia
1tsp vanilla extract
155g milk powder
310g icing sugar
This is the recipe I posted for others who like me struggled to find the measurements
I have been doing my birthday cakes from here for 4 consecutive years
Made this last night with a few tweaks and it really is some great frosting! I was afraid of over beating the cream cheese so I started with just the butter whipped for 10 min till light and fluffy, then added the cream cheese and mixed (on high of course, as advised 🙂) for a minute. Added in the sugar, powdered milk and vanilla and mixed on high for 2 minutes (with a scrape down in between). I did find that using equal parts butter and cheese and possibly the milk powder left me with a subtle taste of the cream cheese so I added another part cream cheese and a bit more sugar and instead of the pinch of salt I put in a half teaspoon of lemon juice. The milk powder is a great trick!
Here were my measurements:
250g Butter , 500g cream cheese, 400g powdered sugar, 150g powdered milk (NIDO), 1 Tbsp Vanilla extract and half tsp fresh lemon juice.
The extras did make for ALOT of frosting, enough for a 3 layer 6” cake 🙂 and the taste was reminiscent of a New York style cheesecake. Thanks Nick!! xx
was this stable enough for cakes ?
ivyjiang5 Well, it was during icing and then I’d put the cake straight in the fridge until serving. It did hold well enough, however I noticed the slices that were left over at room temperature around an hour or so later the detail from my piping had shifted a bit and it was noticeably softer.
Do you think it would be enough for a 2 layer cake 10” cake?
@@animexvibex4751 Hi, yes I think it would be! I’ve made this a few more times and always have alot left over even from frosting a 4 layer 6” cake so going with that logic it should be. xx
I have been making this cream cheese frosting for years and is my family's favourite! Thank you for sharing your recipes! We totally love you! Greetings from México!
Hello from Brazil! Nick, this is the best frosting recipe EVER!!! Thank you so much for sharing 🥳
I just love watching your videos. I have learned so much about baking. You are number one! Thank you ... from auckland
I always wondered how to get a more stable cream cheese frosting. This video was a game changer. Using COLD cream cheese is the trick! I don't use the milk powder so I just add the entire 2lbs. of powdered sugar. I can crumb coat, frost, and decorate my cakes without it getting too soft or runny. Thanks Nick! You're the best!
I’ve learned so much from u and how to make ur amazing cakes and recipes, ur sure a great help to my journey through to becoming a pro cake decorator
Thanks for this Nick, Watching from the highlands of Scotland and I like how you explain everything so simply so even a real novice like me can understand. Thanks again, looking forward to your next video
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for watching! N x
Talk about EXACT, STEP BY STEP instructions! I have never seen it broken down this much! That may be why sometimes the frosting isn't the consistency you want, especially for a stablized piping. Will have to give this a go! Thankyou!

I made this recipe into a strawberry flavored version by blending freeze dried strawberries into a food processor & mixing into the frosting. Delicious!
thanks for sharing Nic. i love this frosting. i did reduce abt 30% of sugar and still love it.
Made this icing for my Easter Carrot Cake and it was phenomenal!! Thank you!
I made so much of it that I have to make red velvet cupcakes to use up the rest of the icing!😁
That's very helpful 😊😊😊

Thank you for sharing ☺️❤️ I'm new subscriber😁..
I. LOVE. THIS. FROSTING!!!!
So easy to make too. I made your red velvet cupcakes and all my family and friends loved them ❤
Thanks for the awesome recipes. I'm keen for Sugar Rebels 2
Not likely to happen unless I can fine a publisher who hasn't got dollar signs in their eyes this time haha
Noooooo. That sucks
This is sooo amazing!! I'm curious if there's any way to combine white chocolate with the cream cheese? I don't know why but the combination just sounds like heaven.
Love your video dude ! Imma cook that tomorrow ! thanks for the tips ;)
I made it and it is so good!♥️
Thank you for sharing looks delicious 😍💚❤️
Yes a tutorial with a hand mixer. Thank you! 👍 very informative video. How much cocoa powder did you add?
When I tell you this buttercream is amazing!!! I’ve never tasted cream cheese frosting that tastes so good and holds its shape. I live in the UK and we don’t really have cream cheese blocks but I managed to do it. It works with not that creamy spreadable kind cream cheese but you might need to chill it for 10 mins before you start piping. I‘d also add some more milk powder so it holds even more! Tasted aaaaamazing!!! Thank you for sharing!
could you be kind to share what milk powder did you use and the brand? thank you!
@@rutgenesis I just got the one I was able to find in ASDA from their own brand! They sell it in a big blue tin which is really practical for making buttercream.
@@mihaelamincheva1126 thank you!
Hiya
Did you use the same quantities as this recipe when using spreadable cream cheese I’m in uk too. Thanks
Awesome cooking show.
Ill definitely doing this for my son's wedding aha !!! never thought that milk powder is a master piece ingredients ! Thanks Nik !
BRILLIANT some one to explain step by step
Thankyou Nick I’ll try this 😊
Hope you like it!
Thank you Nick!!!
Looks really good. I’ll try it.
Hope you enjoy
Thank you, Nick! Even though I can't have dairy, I think these tips will help me figure out how to create my own DF version that actually behaves. Can't wait to try it out with your red velvet recipe!
An idea is to maybe try using non-dairy coffee creamer instead?
Great recipe! Thank you
Amazinggggg thanks for sharing the tips and educate us
Any time!
Like that you talk about storage!
Thank you so much its really good i made the frosting taste really good.
I want to share my piece
Thank you for this recipe. I have always loved cream cheese frosting, but mine is always not right. Now I know what I have been doing wrong. I have always softened my butter & cream cheese & didnt add salt
The Best chef ❤️.
This looks so good! Can I use this frosting on chocolate cupcakes?
Ur an amazing explainer!!

Hello Mick love all ur baking videos...can we add strawberry puree in this cream cheese
Dear Nick

Am having trouble though because it's kind of runny .
I need to stabilise it so as to finish my decoration.
Am also concerned about the weather since its got now.I need it more stable for a safe delivery.
Please help!!!!
Hi Nick thank you for this recipe!! Great to have a stable cream cheese frosting.. have you tried this recipe using russian tips? Do you it will hold its shape? Thank you
Hey Nick! Since I'm having a trouble finding cream cheese blocks, would it be acceptable to use mascarpone cheese with a small splash of lemon juice to replicate the tanginess of cream cheese? Thank you in advance, love your videos! :)
Seems awsome!
Very nice! Please show us the red velvet cake.
Dear Nick.
Thankyou for your video.
I loved it and been trying out the baking.
I need some help though.
The frosting come out smooth and tasty but very light. How can I thicken it so that Am able to decorate the cake.
At the moment the weather is hot Am concerned about its delivery too
Hi. I live in a very humid place so do you suggest this recipe for humid climate too without AC?Thanks.
Love ur recipe ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! Subscribed!
This buttercream creme recipe is a lifesaver l i t e r a l l y. I hate too much sugar!!
Hi Nick! You are amazing and I love you're cooking!!!! Can I use that frosting for a cake? Is one batch of frosting enough for one batch of chocolate cake?
Yes you can! I'd reccomend 2 batches depending on how big the cake is. I'll have more info on this when I begin uploading my cake recipe videos in a couple weeks! :0) x
Thank you i need to try this i made some the other day and it was too sweet,so i will go buy some milk powder,❤ thanks again 😊
Hi Nick, I have a question about the type of milk powder you used, is it instant or non-instant? Thanks, and cannot wait to try this recipe! :)
Hi Brianna. I'm pretty sure it's instant, i used instant and it turned out like his
Lo amoooo, Exelente sevicio repostero😄👌
Hey Nick, can I add black gel food colour to this frosting? TIA 🙏🏽😊😊
Gracias por compartir!!! 😘
Thank you!
Thank you, sir!
Hi Nick! I LOVEEE this cream cheese frosting it's so delicious. Just one question , i follow the recipe using cold cream cheese and mixing on high speed etc but my frosting becomes quite soft for piping on cupcakes. And i'm worried to use this for layered cakes because of the soft consistency Any advice ? And any advice for warmer months as well.
Hello Ivyjiang, the friction of mixing can cause the frosting to warm up a bit. After you are finished mixing place your frosting in the refrigerator for a few minutes. Dont keep it in too long because then it will become too stiff to ice your cupcakes.
To answer your question about layer cakes....cream cheese frosting will always have the problem of being soft. The milk powder does help stabilize the cream cheese mixture but just a little bit. Here is a tip: pipe a ring of thick regular buttercream icing around the top edge of your cake layer. That will create a dam to pipe your cream cheese frosting into. Place your top cake layer on top and the piped "dam" will do most of the supporting. Now ice the rest of the cake in the cream cheese icing. Dont go too heavy or thick with the icing because it can slide if you are not careful. If the cake is going to be in a warm atmosphere just keep it refrigerated and pull it out about 30 mins before slicing so everybody can see your amazing creation. I hope this helps.
Loved it because it is not too sweet
Hi Nick
Can your frosting last at the beach
This cream cheese frosting can stand a warm-ish weather right? Will try this later.
I love the idea that it not too sweet but would it be good for icing and smoothing a cake with it? Please advise because I’m planning to bake a 4 layers carrot cake
Thanks so much, can I use any type of powdered milk?
I want to try this and afraid I might taste the flavour of the powdered milk.
Could you show how to make German buttercream please?
Thanks for another delicious yummy recipe Sir God gracious medical student Malaysia.😋👍✌
Can “coconut” milk powered be used ?
Could I replace the milk powder with coconut milk powder?
This is the perfect cheese buttercream, with the milk powder, it is less sweet and more firm, the combination ideal, regards from México ;)
My pleasure 😊
Hi, just wanted to ask if the frosting do well in hot climate? Can you put it out without melting?
@@emmaa5975 same question🤔
Can you use sweeten milk powder?
@@emmaa5975 meringue powder, its so good for that!
Hi! I made this and mine tasted gritty. What do you think I did wrong? Also, how much cocoa powder to make it chocolate? Thank you in advance! 😊
Hi Nick , is the milk powder sweetened ?
Hi, am staying in India. please advise which brand milk powder to use for this frosting urgently
This looks so delicious. I have a question regarding storage after you iced cupcakes do they need to be refrigerated? And if so for how long can they be kept in refrigerator? I love all your creations and enjoy watching your videos❣️Thank you.
Not necessarily, but if it's warm where you are, I'd recommend it to help keep them fresh, Up to three days is my general rule. Hope that helps!
Yes thank you! I appreciate you getting back to me. Stay safe and healthy.
How much milk powder do you put it in? The link doesn't explain the milk powder part. Could someone please let me know? Thank you!
Amo sus vídeos y ya estoy suscrita...pero me gustaría entendder todo lo q explica. ..sería mucho pedir q podamos tener subtítulos. ...😢😢😢😍😍😍😔😔
Hi thx for sharing. I tried your cream cheese icing... l used the paddle .. followed your steps.. the powered milk threw it off because it was grainy..so l then used the beater attachment to remove the milk lumps. I must say it was not super sweet at all. I then made another batch..l increased the cream cheese, and decreased the powered milk..l still had to beat it like crazy, but the end result was fantastic. Side note: your pictures doesn’t show granules, is there a reason why?
Hi! I have tried this recipe but the milk powder taste is a bit too strong for me. Can you advise should I add more cheese to it to remove the milk powder taste?
Hi nick how much quantity of butter and cream cheese i need to use pls do reply
Can you use the same concept with American buttercream ?
