Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½-1 cup powdered sugar adjust to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons black sesame paste adjust to taste
- 1 tablespoon vanilla paste or extract
- ⅓ cup heavy cream chilled; optional, if you want it fluffier!
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix softened 8 ounces cream cheese, ½-1 cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste), 1 tablespoon vanilla, and 2-3 tablespoons black sesame paste until fully combined and smooth.
