Icing

1/2 lb. butter 2 sticks

12 oz. cream cheese

1/2 lb. powdered sugar

3/4 t. vanilla

Cream butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add eggs two at a time until incorporated. scrape down bowl. sift together dry ingredients and add in bowl until just combined. Pour into greased sheet pan and bake at 350 20-30 minutes. cool to room temp.

For icing combine all room temp. ingredients in mixer until smooth.

Ice cake and make flag with blueberries and either strawberries, raspberries, or red cherries. If you want you can save some icing and pipe between red fruit for white stripes, but I usually skip this step. 

Have a great holiday, call me later.
