The frosting has to be my favorite part of this cake because of how smooth and creamy it is. You can either make this a regular butter cream recipe or you can zest it up with some fresh lemon.

Here Is What You Need:

The Ingredients To Gather:

• 3 cups powdered sugar

• 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened

• 1-½ teaspoons vanilla

• 2 tablespoons milk

The Step By Step Directions To Follow:

1.  In medium bowl, mix powdered sugar and butter with spoon or electric mixer on low speed. Stir in vanilla and milk.

Mix everything together till it becomes nice and creamy. You can also add more or less powdered sugar depending on how thick you want your frosting.

Helpful Hint:

Add ½ a Teaspoon of Vanilla, Hazelnut or Lemon Extract if you want to change the flavor a bit. You can also zest a lemon just a tad, ¼ teaspoon and throw it in.

For this recipe you can also get away with throwing some crushed walnuts on top of the cake as well. It does not call for it originally but we thought it added a little fun factor in.

With the holidays just around the corner, why not start a new tradition with this amazing cake for a new desert. A for sure award winner for those that love the savory, moist, richness of cakes with a twist of lemon. A taste bud pleaser for sure!!
