This is amazing frosting! I made the cinnamon version to go with Annacia's Cinnamon White Chocolate Cake, and it was perfect. I am looking forward to trying the vanilla version. I did have some leftover frosting so I think I'll dip some graham crackers in the frosting for dessert. Yum! Thanks so much for posting.
