1 T Vanilla extract

Mix the powdered sugar into the softened cream cheese a little (2/3 cup) at
a time, making sure it is well blended after every addition.

NOTES:

* Easy-to-make candies with chocolate and cream cheese -- Here's a good
recipe for lazy chocolate freaks. They're not as good as the ones you buy
in good candy stores, but they're still yummy.

* If you're adventurous, try substituting the liqueur of your choice for
the vanilla.
