- Transfer the frosting to a bowl and cover it. Allow it to set in the fridge for about six hours. This step lets the flavors develop and the frosting to firm up.
- After six hours, take it out and give it a good stir. The texture should be perfect for spreading!
- Finally, serve it over your favorite baked goods. Whether it's cake, cupcakes, or even fruit, this Lemon Coconut Frosting will elevate your dessert to new heights!
