Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting (less sweet)

I'm not a huge fan of frosting because I find that most places make the frosting overbearingly sweet. So I like to cut down on the sweetness as much as I can so that I can enjoy the star of the show...the cupcake. Hope you enjoy this less sweet version of my lemon cream cheese frosting.
