Ingredients

Steps

1

Cream the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.

2

Add the lemon zest, lemon juice and salt, mix until combined.

3

Slowly add the powdered sugar and mix until light and fluffy.

4

If frosting is not to spreading consistency mix in more powdered sugar to the consistency you want.

5

Spread on prepared cake and store finished cake in the refrigerator.

Chef's notes: Separate eggs before you bring them to room temperature. They are easier to separate cold. The original recipe called for 6 inch cake pans and has been converted to 9 inch cake pans with adjusted baking time. You will need to keep an eye on it and check it at 15 minutes, then every 5 minutes until done. Don't overbake.
