These were so tasty. You can use whatever white cake recipe you like and garnish however you like. But the really yummy part was the lemon frosting. Here's the recipe:
Lemon Buttercream Frosting
Ingredients:
8 tbsp butter
4 cups powdered sugar
2-3 tbsp milk
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp grated lemon zest
Directions:
Place butter and 1 cups of powdered sugar in mixing bowl. Blend with electric mixer on low speed to incorporate, 30 seconds. Add remaining powdered sugar alternately with 2 tbsp milk and lemon juice, blending with mixer on low. Stir in lemon zest. Add another tbsp of milk if frosting is too stiff. Increase mier speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, one minute more.
I think I played with the exact proportions slightly -- added a little more lemon juice I think. It was delicious!
