This easy lemon icing takes just 5 minutes and a handful of ingredients: butter, powdered sugar, fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of our organic lemon peel for extra zing. It's bright, tangy and just sweet enough. Spread it on cinnamon rolls, carrot cake, cookies or pound cake, or thin it with a little extra lemon juice for a drizzle.

Lemon Icing

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon Organic Lemon Peel

Directions

  1. Beat the softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth and crumbly.

  2. Add the lemon juice and lemon peel and beat until creamy.

  3. Add more lemon juice, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the icing reaches your desired consistency: thicker for spreading, thinner for drizzling.
