Share:
Ingredients
- 2 Cups confectioners sugar
- ¼ Cup lemon juice
- 2 Tbs butter melted
- 1 zest of lemon
- ½ zest of lime
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Mix all of the ingredients together in a large pyrex liquid measuring cup. It works best to mix with a fork or whisk.
Notes
- PRO TIP: If you enjoy the lemon and lime flavor together, next time try a little orange zest for a great triple threat!
- Mix up the glaze and then let it sit for a little bit to thicken slightly before pouring on the cake.
- To keep the glaze more thick, make sure the cake is cooled all the way first.
- Want a little trick for a yummy base to your cake? Before turning the cake over onto the plate poke some smaller holes in the bottom of your cake (with a fork) and then slowly pour a little of the glaze into the holes. YUM!
- The glaze will seem very difficult to stir and mix together at first, just keep stirring, it will loosen up.
- To add more lemony flavor to your glaze, add MORE zest, that’s where the true flavor is!
- The pinch of salt added to your glaze perks up the flavor.
