2-3 small containers of cream cheese, softened
1 orange

Directions:
Directions:
Cream together cream cheese, powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Add zest of 1/2 of the orange then I squeeze approx 1tsp of the juice and cream together.
This is not a thick icing I have tried adding more powdered sugar and I cannot find a way to thicken the recipe but the flavor is not overly sweet but just right for those who do not care for sweet icings.

Personal Notes:
I came up with this recipe when I was making Ellie's first birthday cake and have since had several friends ask for the recipe it does not turn out to be a thick icing but very yummy! Sometimes for a little variety I will add Marshmallow fluff to it to give it a little different taste.
