Strawberry Cheesecake Frosting (aka. Berry Cake Part DEUX!!!!)

Okay- here is possibly the best frosting EVER!!!!!!!!
...if you like cheesecake.....

You will need :
2 8oz. pkgs cream cheese
1/2 c. soft butter
2-3 c. sifted powdered sugar
3 large strawberries whirled in a blender with 1 heaping T. sugar
1 t. vanilla

please ignore the fingerprint in the butter...they were CLEAN fingers testing to make sure everybody was soft and ready to become something wonderful!!!!!!

 Sift in your powdered sugar....lumpy cheesecake frosting WILL NOT DO!!!!!

Mix it slowly to prevent a sudden "snowstorm" in your kitchen!!!!!!

It'll look pretty thick.....but it'll be just right.....
note: this frosting is not overly sweet- it is really much more of a cheesecake flavor than your typical cream cheese frosting, but FEEL FREE to add more powdered sugar to suit your preferences!
So far, it is still a free country!

and that's what you want because next, you are going to add.......

THE STRAWBERRIES!!!!!!!!

then your fruitiful frosting will look like this!!!!!!!

Retrieve the berry cake you made late last night and slice each 9" cake in half....spread cheesecake frosting between each layer......don't worry about perfection...the taste will wow you enough!!!!!!

Get a nice layer all over the outside of the cake.......

 MMmmmmm- and you could easily leave it right there and be oh so happy, but we are going over the top here...HOLD ON!!!!!!! Graham cracker crumbs to the table please.......

Coat only the sides...and leave the top for your beautiful succulent berries!!!!!!!



You will probably have enough cake to share with your friends coming over to dinner.....and maybe even spare a piece for someone who just happens to stop in for a quick "Hello!"
Either way, you are sure to find lots of occasions this Strawberry season to enjoy this taste sensation!!!!!
See you in the morrow!!!!
