Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup (2 sticks; 230g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
4 and 1/2 cups (540g) confectioners' sugar
2 and 1/2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 Tablespoons heavy cream
2 teaspoons lemon zest
pinch salt, to taste

Steps:

  • With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy - about 2 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, heavy cream, and zest with the mixer running on low. Increase to high speed and beat for 3 full minutes. Taste and add salt as needed. Add up to 1/2 cup more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin or another Tablespoon of cream if frosting is too thick.
  • Cover tightly and store for up to 1 week in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer. After freezing or refrigerating, thaw in the refrigerator, bring to room temperature then beat the frosting for a few seconds so it's creamy again. You may need to add a little milk or heavy cream if it's still too stiff.
