Description
Margarita icing gives a little twist to the typical cream cheese icing recipe, using the juice and zest from key limes. A nice compliment to fruit flavored cakes, but can stand all on its own paired with vanilla cake.
Ingredients
8 T
butter 8 oz
cream cheese 2 T
key lime juice 1 t
key lime zest (or lemon zest) 4 c
confectioners sugar (use more for thicker icing)Instructions
1. In large bowl, cream butter, cream cheese, juice and zest with electric mixer until light and fluffy.
2. Add 4 cups confectioners' sugar, one cup at a time; continue beating until light and fluffy.
3. If icing is too thin add additional confectioners' sugar 1 tablespoon at a time.
