Icing Help

My grandma had a special carrot cake recipe that I inherited after she passed in ‘18. Every time I make it, it tastes just like when I was a kid and when my father was a kid. Every time I make it though, the icing runs a little thin which makes it not stay too well when decorating. I was wondering if there was any way I could thicken it up without altering the taste. The ingredients are: 2lbs powdered sugar 2 sticks margarine 2 8oz cream cheese blocks 4tsp vanilla extract I appreciate any help! submitted by /u/silverhummer
