Ingredients

• 1/4 c. unsalted butter
• 1- 8 oz. package cream cheese
• 4-5 c. powdered sugar
• 1 t. flavoring - peppermint, cinnamon, vanilla butter, lemon, banana, coconut etc.
• food coloring

Steps

1. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add cream cheese and stir till softened and partially melted into the butter.
2. Turn off the heat. Add 4 c. powdered sugar to the pan and stir to form a soft sugary dough. If dough seems to liquid or loose, slowly add more sugar till it firms up-- it should be firm enough to mold and shape. If making only one flavor, add 1 t. flavoring to the dough (or more to taste) and stir well.
3. Divide dough into four equal portions. If making more than one flavor, add 1/4 t. of flavoring (or more to taste) to each separate portion of dough and stir well.
