- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese in a medium bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until completely smooth.

Notes
Use low-fat cream cheese and light whipped topping for a lighter filling. For a tangier note, replace some powdered sugar with lemon zest or juice. Swap cookie crumb for crushed biscotti or toasted almonds for a different crunch.
