This delicious lemon whipped cream frosting is made with both lemon juice and lemon zest for extra lemon flavor.

Ingredients

1 Chill a bowl and beaters (or a whisk attachment for a stand mixer) in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

2 Add the heavy whipping cream to the chilled bowl and beat on medium-high speed until frothy and soft peaks form.
