This fluffy buttercream frosting works beautifully with our luscious Lemon Cake. Adapted from Almost Homemade Buttercream from Hello Cupcake! Irresistibly Playful Creations Anyone Can Make by Karen Tack and Alan Richardson. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2008.
Ingredients:
16 ounces marshmallow cream

Directions:
1. Beat the marshmallow cream using an electric mixer set on low.
2. Add the butter (in 1-inch pieces) and beat until smooth.
3. Add the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and confectioners' sugar, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, and continue to beat on medium-high until smooth and fluffy.
