Notes

Baking Tips

Ensure that both the cream cheese and butter are softened at room temperature.

I recommend to use electric mixer for smooth consistency.

Slowly incorporate powdered sugar into the cream cheese-butter mixture. This helps achieving a smoother texture.

Feel free to add more ube flavor (extract) if needed. Taste as you go to ensure the flavor is balanced.
