Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 3 tbsp powdered erythritol
- 1/4 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 8 oz softened cream cheese and 4 tbsp softened unsalted butter. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
