Lemon cake
Versatile dessert is easy to customize
By Beth McDonald
Cakes are one of my favorite
things to bake and share
with friends and family. I
enjoy making the cake unique for
the person, and I try to make a
new cake flavor or frosting flavor
based on whom it is for.
For my latest celebration, I
made a lemon cake with lemon
curd and a cream cheese frosting.
As with all of the baking I do, this
one is something you can easily
customize. You can swap out the lemon curd for raspberries, blackberries
or blueberries, or you can fill your layers with just frosting. I like a
lemon cake because it is light, goes well with fruit fillings and complements
the frosting.
Something that I always do with my cakes is to torte them, which
means to cut each cake at least in half so that you can add filling. One
key to adding filling to the cake is using frosting to create an outline on
the cake, creating a stop to keep your filling inside. The other key to
a great cake is to make sure you crumb coat your cake. A crumb coat
keeps the crumbs from the surface of your final frosting. To create the
crumb coat, take some of your frosting, thin it out with milk and then
coat the cake. Once the crumb coat is on, let it set. Once it is set, you
are ready for your final coat of frosting. Enjoy! �
Lemon cake

2 1/2 cups sifted cake flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 tablespoon lemon zest

1 1/8 cups milk
Directions
1. Prepare your cake pans; I use the
baking pan spray but you can use
parchment paper, too.
2. Take the flour, baking powder,
and salt and sift them together.
3. In the mixer, cream the butter
and sugar. Add the lemon zest, egg
yolks and mix.
4. Add the dry ingredients and
finally the milk.
5. Bake at 350 for 25 - 30 minutes.

Blend butter and cream cheese and
then add the powdered sugar.
