better homes and gardens "Chocolate-Cream Cheese Frosting"

This is my favorite!

1-8oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups sifted powdered sugar
3- 31/2 cups addtional sifted powdered sugar

In large bowl combine all ingredients except for powdered sugar, beat until light and fluffy. Gradually add the 2 cups sifted powdered sugar, beating well. Gradually add the rest of the sifted powdered sugar until it reached spreading consistency. This frosts tops and sides of to or three 8 to 9 inch cakes. (Halve this recipe for a 13X9 inch cake).
