    Lemon Icing: Combine 2 cups confectioners' sugar, 3 tablespoons of lemon juice concentrate and 2 tablespoons of softened butter or margarine, mix until smooth.. If you like a lot of icing; double the batch. I find that the icing is a bit thick, I like mine thinner, so , I added about a tablespoon of cream.
