Directions
Rich Lemon Cake, This cake is supposed to be freeze-able, although it never lasts long enough in our house to get to the freezer. This is one of my most requested items when I ask “what can I bring?”, I can’t say enough about this cake! The almond flavor was delicious and the lemon glaze just put it over the top. For the glaze used the juice of two lemons and 1.5 cups of powdered sugar. I didn’t have much trouble getting it out of the bundt ban. Might have baked it for just a couple of minutes longer. I happened to have buttermilk so used that instead of regular milk. Homemade cakes rule! Would make again., Perfect in every way! A rich, moist, tender butter cake with just the right amount of lemon flavor. I did add a little more zest because my lemon tree is producing like crazy and I have lemons to burn. Very easy to make. Excellent with coffee or tea. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
