Creamy Icing

**Originally posted on my old cooking blog. This is the last of my cooking blog posts. They've now all been moved over --thanks for sticking with me! It's great to have everything on one blog now!

I frosted a chocolate cake with this icing for Christmas this year. I added crushed candy canes for a seasonal look and taste.It was a hit! My mother-in-law gave me this recipe, which is also good plain or with candy bars or chocolate chips added in.

Creamy Icing

Ingredients:
8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 (12 oz.) container Cool Whip
Chopped candy bars, chocolate chips or crushed peppermints

Directions:
Beat cream cheese and sugars until creamy. Fold in Cool Whip and candy. Ice cake. This makes enough frosting for a 9x13 inch cake.
