King Cake Filling
Cream Cheese King Cake Filling
Ingredients
4 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
1 large egg yolk
Pinch of salt
¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, egg yolk, salt, and vanilla until smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag.
Cut the tip off one corner of the filled plastic bag so you have a 1-inch hole.
Use the bag to pipe the filling in a long line down the center of your rolled out king cake dough.
Roll up dough, and proceed with the package directions.
