If you like lemons - this is the cake for you! It reminds me of summertime so that's when I usually make it. I got this recipe from TOH and haven't changed anything. We like it the way it is. Times are approximate. Ingredients:
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened |
2 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon extract |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
3 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup milk |
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon water |
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract |
3/4 cup sugar |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. 2. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. 3. Beat in extracts. 4. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk. 5. Stir in lemon peel. 6. Pour into a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan. 7. Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. 8. Cool for 10 minutes; invert onto a serving plate. 9. Cool 10 minutes longer. 10. Combine glaze ingredients. 11. Drizzle over warm cake. 12. Cool completely before serving. |
