  • 1.    Whisk the butter and add powdered sugar a little at a time until it is all incorporated (use a hand mixer or kitchen machine with the paddle attachment). 2.    Add vanilla sugar. 3.    Whisk until it is fluffy. 4.    Add Philadelphia and mix well – optionally, soften the Philadelphia cheese so it doesn't clump! 5.    Add lemon juice and grated zest and stir. I also added green food coloring to my frosting.
