Instructions

Gather all ingredients on a clean countertop, ensuring cream cheese and butter are at room temperature.
In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and butter until smooth (about 2 minutes).
Gradually sift in powdered sugar while mixing on low speed; then add cinnamon and molasses, mixing until well combined.
Incorporate vanilla extract and mix until fluffy and lump-free.
Adjust consistency by adding milk if too thick; frost should hold its shape.
