Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 pound margarine or butter, at room temperature
- 2 pounds powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Step 1: Combine Cream Cheese and Butter Begin by placing the cream cheese and margarine (or butter) in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix them together on a medium speed until the mixture is completely smooth and well blended.
- Step 2: Add Powdered Sugar Gradually add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese mixture while continuing to mix on a low setting. Pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, ensuring all ingredients are uniformly combined. Continue this process until all the powdered sugar is incorporated. Then, increase the speed to medium and mix for an additional 12 minutes to achieve a silky and smooth texture.
- Step 3: Infuse Flavors Add in the lemon juice and pure vanilla extract to the mixture. Blend on a low speed until these ingredients are just incorporated, taking care not to overmix, as it might affect the frosting’s consistency.
