- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, room temperature
- ½ cup caramel sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment (or using a handheld mixer), beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
Add the caramel sauce and vanilla. Beat until blended.
Add 3 cups of confectioners sugar, 1 cup at a time, and beat on low speed until blended. Add more confectioners' sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
