• In the bowl of your mixer beat the butter until smooth,  blend in the lemon extract and zest. Add 1/2 of the powdered sugar and 1/2 of the milk and mix at medium speed until combined. Add remaining powdered sugar and gradually add the milk.  You can also add a touch of lemon yellow coloring gel at this point if you would like more color. Mix at medium speed 3 to 5 minutes scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl occasionally.  At the end of mixing, slow down the mixer to very low speed for a minute or two, this will help to eliminate air pockets in the buttercream.
