What a comforting desert! I didn't change alot, just, like a reviewer said, to cream the cheese, butter first. Then add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, the milk, (or heavy whipping cream), then the coloring and mint flavoring, added extra mint. But I also didn't add the whole 3 cups of powdered sugar. Maybe 2 3/4 cups. Used heavy whipping cream instead of milk, and added a little more than 2 tablespoons. Frosting turned out wonderful! Five stars at our house!! Very easy, also!

This recipe was great, one of the best deserts i've ever made. But for the drizzle I just used melted chocolate frosting instead of the recipe, and to get the minty cream cheese frosting actually spreadable I had to get out an electric mixer. But everyone said that they tasted awesome.
