In a mixer, add the powdered sugar. We don’t sift it. If it is really lumpy, we use the mixer paddles to break it up. Add the softened butter and cream together on low speed until the powdered sugar and butter are completely combined. Continue to beat on medium speed until the frosting is creamy. Add the lemon zest and the lemon juice. Continue to mix. If the frosting is too runny, add 1/2 cup additional powdered sugar. Keep adding powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until you have the frosting at the desired consistency.
