I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Lemon Mascarpone Frosting

Pay no attention to my inability as a cake decorator...but you've got to try this frosting! It's spreadability is the best!


Ingredients:
1 cup butter, room temperature
8 oz mascarpone cheese, room temperature
zest of 1 lemon (or more)
1 tsp lemon juice
4 cups icing sugar

 Cream together the butter and mascarpone, then mix in the zest and lemon juice.

 Add the icing sugar in 1 cup at a time until smooth.

 You could add a drop of yellow food colouring if you like but this light yellow was all natural.

I might try it with just 3 cups of icing sugar next time and the zest of 2 lemons because there's definitely going to be a next time!
