  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>This delicate frosting has a nice cream cheese flavor and is just sweet enough to complement any <a href="/recipes/11131">cupcake</a> or <a href="/recipes/12198">cake</a> without overwhelming it. Our editor in chief likes to use it to top our <a href="/recipes/10690">Zucchini&#8211;Pine Nut Muffins</a>.</p>


	<p><strong>Game plan:</strong> The frosting will last up to 1 week when stored in an airtight container in the  refrigerator.</p>]]>
