Time 45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pint heavy cream
¼ cup powdered sugar, divided, or as needed
½ medium lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Place the bowl of a stand mixer in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from the freezer and attach to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add heavy cream to the bowl and mix, gradually increasing the speed to 8, until soft peaks begin to form. Mix in about 3 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, scraping the bowl as needed.
  • Add lemon juice; mix until thoroughly incorporated and frosting tastes tart and lemony. If it's not sweet enough, mix in more sugar at your discretion. Place in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before using.
