Time 10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2-2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Place the butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and blend with an electric mixer on low speed until fluffy, 30 seconds.
  • Add powdered sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice and blend on low speed until sugar is incorporated, 1 minute. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy, 1 minute longer, adding up to 1/2 cup more sugar, a tablespoon at a time, if needed to make the right spreading consistency.
