                Place cream cheese in a large bowl that’s microwave-safe. Heat for 10 seconds, then mix in sugar and mint extract until it’s got a frosting-like texture. It should take around a minute of whisking.

                Slowly stir in milk, cream, and food coloring (if using). Mix everything together until the sugar is completely gone and it looks smooth.
