Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, gather all your ingredients together, which makes the process smoother. In a mixing bowl, I blend together the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until creamy. Adding powdered sugar gradually helps to sweeten the mixture without any lumps. Once you achieve a smooth consistency, mix in the vanilla extract, and if you’re like me, take a moment to enjoy that heavenly scent of peanut butter wafting through the kitchen. **(See the next page below to continue steps…)**
