  1. Adjust rack one-third up from bottom of oven. Preheat to 350.

  4. In large bowl of electric mixer cream the butter.
  5. Add sugar and beat 2-3 minutes.
  6. Beat in eggs individually, scraping bowl as necessary with a rubber spatula to keep mixture smooth.

  8. Stir in lemon rind.
  9. Turn batter into prepared pan; level top by rotating pan briskly back and forth.
  10. Bake 1 hour and 10-15 minutes until a cake tester comes out dry. Let cake stand in pan for about 5 minutes; then cover with a rack and invert.
  11. Remove pan, leaving cake upside down.
  12. Place over a large piece of aluminum foil or wax paper and prepare glaze of 1/3 cup lemon juice and 3/4 cup sugar.
