  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Lemon Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest

Instructions

Lemon Glaze

  • Add all ingredients listed under “Lemon Glaze” into a bowl, mix until well combined and smooth.

Assemble

  • In a large sauce pan over medium heat, melt 8 tbsp of butter.
