Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Red and yellow food coloring

Directions

Prepare an 8×8 inch pan by lining with parchment paper and coating with butter.

Put cream cheese in microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir until smooth. (Might take a little more time depending on your microwave.)

Use a double boiler to slowly melt white chocolate chips. Once melted and smooth, add the cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth.

Divide into three bowls. Keep one bowl white. Mix 2-3 drops of yellow food color (More or less depending you’re your preference) into the second bowl and stir until combined. In third bowl mix equal drops of red and yellow food color to make a bright orange and mix thoroughly.
