Makes ~2 cups; enough to frost 24 regular cupcakes, 60 mini cupcakes, a 2 or 3 layer cake
8oz cream cheese, softened
¼ c. butter, softened
1 lb powdered sugar
1 tbsp + 1 tsp orange juice
1/8 tsp nutmeg
½ tsp ground cinnamon
  1. Combine the cream cheese and butter. Cream until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the powdered sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon. Beat until smooth.
  3. Add the orange juice and continue beating until smooth and fluffy.
