πππLemon Cream Cheese Buttercream Frostingπππ instructions
- In a stand mixer, (or even with a hand mixer) cream together all the wet ingredients until smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the confectioners sugar. If you want the frosting firmer, (mainly for decorating purposes) add a little more confectioners sugar at a time until you achieve the consistency you want..
- As you can see in the photo, due to the extra lemon curd, combined with refrigerating the night before and allowing it to resoften before use, mine came out a little bit glossy. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't believe this would be considered a "crusting buttercream," as it stayed soft and creamy after sitting out at room temperature while we finished cooking then ate dinner. It was exposed to the air for about an hour and a half or so. Nonetheless, this frosting tastes so dreamy!!! πππππ.
