Step-by-Step Instructions

To start, I grab my mixing bowl and combine the softened cream cheese and peanut butter. Using an electric mixer (or a good old-fashioned whisk if I’m feeling adventurous), I beat those two together until they are velvety smooth and creamy. The aroma of peanut butter wafting through my kitchen is absolute bliss and instantly makes my mouth water. Then, I gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well combined. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
