Italian Lemon Cake
This Italian lemon pound cake is a recipe that I'd had my eye on for a long time. I finally made it back in April! I skipped adding frosting but if you visit the original recipe it'll tell you how to make it. The glaze needed a lot more lemon juice than the recipe called for. I used 5 tablespoons of lemon juice and it was still very thick. The cake itself isn’t very lemony so you really do need either the glaze or the frosting to bring the lemon flavour to this recipe. I'm not complaining though, it was still really delicious! Italian Lemon Cake Adapted from My Recipe Confessions Makes 1 Cake Ingredients For the Cake 3 cups all purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter, softened 2 cups sugar 3 large eggs 1/2 cup buttermilk 1/2 cup sour cream 4 tablespoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons lemon zest 1 teaspoon vanilla For the Glaze 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar 5+ tablespoons lemon juice Directions Preheat the oven to 325F. Grease and flour a bundt or cake p

I bet I couldn't eat just one - they look so good!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is 'Wow!' I've attempted homemade Snickers (hooray!) and Twinkies (unsuccessful), but never peanut butter cups. This is now on my to-do list. I typically cook in SRC's Group A, but had the opportunity to step in for Group B. I am enjoying exploring some new-to-me blog. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteJumbo Peanut Butter Cups - I'm totally there. I bet I could eat them all myself. :)
ReplyDeleteI adore peanut butter and chocolate! I think I would probably eat the entire batch myself... but I still want to give this recipe a go. Great choice and thanks for sharing!
