Place the cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large bowl and beat on medium speed until smooth.
Turn the mixer down to medium-low speed and pour the heavy cream down the side of the bowl in a very slow and steady stream, stopping every now and then to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula.
When all the cream has been added, turn the mixer up to medium-high and whip until the frosting holds stiff peaks.
Fold in the vanilla extract, if using.
* Do not use cream cheese from a tub. Look for the kind of cream cheese that comes in a brick for this recipe.
