• 4 extra large eggs at room temp
• 1/8 teaspoon of Hain Pure Foods® Sea Salt

DIRECTIONS

1. In a food processor, combine lemon zests and sugar and pulse until zests are finely minced.
2. With food processor still running on slow speed, add in lemon juice.
3. In an electric mixer, cream butter with a paddle and add in the lemon sugar mixture.
