Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Butter Icing.
Step 1
Begin by assembling your key ingredients: unsalted butter, fresh lemon juice, pure vanilla extract, and confectioners' sugar.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend the softened butter, zesty lemon juice, fragrant vanilla extract, and sweet confectioners' sugar.
Step 3
With an electric mixer, whip the mixture on medium speed until it transforms into a light and airy frosting, which should take around 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
If your icing feels a bit too thick, simply drizzle in a touch more lemon juice; conversely, if it’s too runny, sprinkle in additional confectioners' sugar gradually until you achieve that perfect, spreadable consistency.
Step 5
Once your icing is just right, let your creativity flow as you frost your favorite cakes or cookies, adding a delightful citrus twist to your baked treats.
Step 6
Enjoy the process and savor the delicious results!.
