Categories     Frosting Icing and Fondant

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup (115 grams) butter
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) lemon juice
1 teaspoon (5 grams) lemon zest (optional)
½ teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) vanilla extract (optional)
3 cups (375 grams) icing/confectioners' sugar
Yellow food coloring (optional)

Steps:

  • Cream the butter until it turns light and fluffy. Put the butter into a mixing bowl, and beat it with a handheld mixer. If you have a food processor with a whisk attachment, use that instead.
  • Mix in the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. If you'd like a smoother frosting, omit the lemon zest. If you'd like a less sweet frosting, omit the vanilla extract.
  • Beat in the sugar gradually, 1 cup (125 grams) at a time. Use medium speed, and keep beating until the mixture becomes smooth. From time to time, scrape the sides of the bowl so that everything mixes evenly.
  • Add more sugar or lemon juice, if necessary. If the frosting is too dry, add a little more lemon juice or milk. If the frosting is too wet/runny, add a little more sugar. At this point, you can also add a few drops of yellow food coloring to make your frosting more lemon-colored.
  • Use the frosting on cakes, cupcakes, or as a filling in pastries. If you won't be using the icing for a while, keep it covered with a damp cloth in the fridge, and re-whip it before you spread it. If it is too dry, then add a little more lemon juice or milk.
  • Enjoy the frosting!
