Orange Cream Cheese Spread for Banana Bread



8 ounces cream cheese {I use reduced-fat}, softened
1/3 cup {heaping!} confectioners' sugar
Grated peel of 1/2 orange
1 Tablespoon frozen orange juice concentrate

Beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add remaining ingredients and mix until blended well. Thinly slice a loaf of fresh but cool banana bread {I like miniature loaves}. Use the spread as a sandwich filling between two slices of bread. Chill if not serving immediately. Serve with tea in the company of good friends. Make enough for leftovers which are best enjoyed at breakfast.
