Spray muffin top pan (I use Wilton's) with baking spray (I use Baker's Joy) and fill each spot with about 2 tablespoons of filling. Do not overfill. You should get 24 equal-sized muffin tops.

Beat the butter and cream cheese for about 2-3 minutes. Add vanilla, powdered sugar and cream. Beat until combined. Add more cream if necessary to get to desired consistency. Pour icing into a sandwich size Ziploc bag, twist the top, snip off the corner and drizzle on cooled muffin tops.
