Nothing says it’s springtime like the bright yellow color of lemons! That’s why this Lemon Oreo Cream Cheese Frosting is a great way to transition your tastebuds into a sweet, springtime cuisine.
This classic cream cheese frosting recipe is a bit on the sweeter side which pairs really nicely with a basic lemon or vanilla cake. I also love the mixture of the cookie crunch mixed in. It gives it a really unique twist.
If you’re not a big lemon fan, that’s totally okay. You can swap this flavor cookie out for the double chocolate, mint chocolate, or the original Oreo cookie flavor. Have fun with it and make it your own!
