Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
5 1/4 - 5 3/4 cups powdered sugar

Preparation

Beat cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and cocoa powder with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually add 2 cups of the powdered sugar, beating well. Gradually beat in additional powdered sugar to reach spreading consistency.
This generously frosts tops and sides of two 8- or 9-inch round cakes. (Have the recipe to frost a 13x9x2-inch cake.) Store left-over frosting in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Cover and store frosted cake in refrigerator.
