15 60 75

Ingredients

  • 1 pound butter, softened
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 4 cups cake flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Confectioners' sugar, fresh peaches, blackberries and mint, optional

Directions

  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the milk, lemon juice, vanilla, lemon peel and extract. Combine the flour, salt and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk mixture, beating well after each addition.
  • Pour 4-1/2 cups of batter into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. (Use the remaining batter to prepare a second pound cake or one of the other cakes on this page.)
  • Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°; bake 45 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar and garnish with fruit and mint if desired. Yield: 2 cakes (9 cups batter).

This is great cake. Not quick but worth the effort. I'll never use a mix again. Search for the words "pound cake ring" and the other recipes will show up. I just divided the ingredients in half to make one cake.
