Answers: I'm making cream cheese frosting but i'm confused about how much sugar I need to add I have 8oz of cream cheese and the cake's pan is 8 1/2 in x 1 1/16 whatever that means or 21,6 dia x 3,3 cm

typical cream cheese frosting has 2 cups of conf. sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 package cream cheese, room temperatur
2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 teaspoons vanilla
I use a pound of confectioners' sugar for each 8 1/2 inch, 2-layer cake. So if you have only one layer, half that much will do, and will be that much richer with all the cream cheese:
Hint for frosting: put the cake in the freezer for about 10 minutes before frosting.
I think most recipes call for 16 oz cream cheese and 2 cups of con. sugar. So, just cut it in half. 1 cup per 8 oz of cream cheese.
