    Apple Cider Cream Cheese Frosting

    Such a great treat for Autumn, and absolutely delicious! This frosting comes out very smooth and thin, creating an almost shiny appearance on the top of your favorite flavored cupcake!

    This recipe will ice 36 cupcakes easily, with some left over. I stored leftover frosting in container in refrigerator and used it on another batch of cupcakes a few days later. Worked very well!

    4 cups apple cider
    16 oz cream cheese (2 packages), softened
    1 – 1 ½ cups confectioner's sugar
    Pinch salt

    Boil down 4 cups of apple cider on medium heat to approximately ¾ to ½ a cup. This took me about 45 minutes. Let cool and thicken.
    Using an electric mixer, mix together softened cream cheese and 1 cup confectioner’s sugar in large bowl.
    Add cooled thickened apple cider and pinch of salt to bowl. Mix until smooth. If not satisfied with thickness, slowly add more confectioner’s sugar as desired.
