Simple, buttercream frosting made with orange juice for a tangy twist! Goes wonderfully on lemon cake, or over vanilla or pound cake. Even unusually good on chocolate cake! Thicker than a glaze, but not as stiff as store bought frostings. You can expect it to spread a little when you apply it, but don't worry, in a few moments it will be set in place. Glossy, elegant, and delicious! Ingredients:
3 cups confectioners' sugar |
3 tablespoons orange juice |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
6 tablespoons salted butter or 6 tablespoons margarine |
Directions:
1. Blend all ingredients together in a bowl until smooth. To thin, add more juice, to thicken, add more sugar.
2. Add a dash of orange zest or fresh grated peel, if desired.
