Fresh Squeezed Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting

December 18, 2016 by Sadie 5 Comments

I love lemon, and I love homemade frosting. We've created the most glorious frosting recipe!! Fresh squeezed lemon juice pairs so nicely with the butter and creamy cheese. It makes for a rich and creamy frosting with a touch of delicious tartness from the lemon juice. This recipe was created for a lemon bundt cake, but it would go perfectly on any concoction! I see a long beautiful relationship with this frosting and future cookies and cakes.

As with the last frosting post I did, I didn't take any step by step photos because I wasn't planning on blogging about it. This frosting turned out too good not to blog! Here's the recipe below.Fresh Squeezed Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting
5 Oz. Cream cheese, softened
1/2 C. Butter, Softened
3 C. Powdered sugar
1/2 C. Fresh squeezed lemon juice

Instructions: Mix cream cheese, butter and lemon juice well until no lumps remain. Add in the powdered sugar and mix the frosting well until fluffy (30-60 seconds on medium high speed). Frost on a cooled cake, or cookie, or grab and spoon and just......enjoy!!!!​

    This was really good. I used it to frost a coconut cake layered with homemade lemon curd. It was covered in sweetened coconut too. A great combination. Thank you for a good recipe!!!
