I have a recipe for cream cheese frosting.....sorry it is not sugar free....I suppose you could use the fat free cream cheese: 2 3oz pkgs cream cheese, 1/2 cup softened margarine or butter (try diet butter), 2 tsp vanilla, 4 1/2 to 4 3/4 cups of sifted powdered sugar.....in a bowl beat together cream cheese, margarine, vanilla til light and fluffy. Gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar, beating well. Gradually beat in enough remaining powdered sugar to make frosting of spreading consistency. Frost tops and sides of 2 8 or 9 inch cake layers. Store leftover frosting in refrigerator. This recipe was from Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook...Bev

Hi, My husband is a diabetic so here is one we have used. 1 pkg of fat free cream cheese 1 tablespoon of Lite imperial margarine 1 tsp vanilla 2 cups of sifted "fructose powdered sugar substitute"see below in a small mixing bowl,combine cream cheese, margarine,and vanilla. Beat at low speed till light and creamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until fluffy.If necessary add milk to make a spreadable consistency. Powdered fuctose: 1 cup fructose 1/3 cup cornstarch Combine fructose and cornstarch in a blender. Process on high for 30 to 45 seconds or until mixture appears like powdered sugar. DO NOT OVERPROCESS or mixture will become liquid and sticky. Good luck. Cheri
