Zesty & Moist Lemon Dessert Cake
Recipe
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
Zest of 2 lemons
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Mix in the sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest, ensuring the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
