In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Use an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.

Add the honey or maple syrup and mix until combined.

Pour in the vanilla extract and sprinkle the salt, mixing well.

Beat the mixture on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Adjust sweetness by adding more honey or syrup if desired and mixing again.

Transfer the frosting to an airtight container and refrigerate if not using immediately.

Use a spatula to frost your cakes or cupcakes.
