If you enjoy warm spices and ordering chai tea at your favorite coffee shops, this cozy chai buttercream is the perfect frosting for you to decorate a layer cake, cupcakes, and more.
With a hand mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer and paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Do the same with cream cheese, mixing for another minute until smooth.
Add powdered sugar, pinch of salt, and vanilla extract. Continue mixing for about a minute, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
However you decide to use this frosting, feel free to dust the end result with some cinnamon, cinnamon sugar, or even add a cinnamon stick on top of the cake or cupcake.
