This is such a simple delicious light cake that it SO easy to make!
Ingredients:
Cake:
3 cups of flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/8 cup salted butter, softened (if you are using unsalted butter go ahead and add a teaspoon of salt..I always use salted so I NEVER add salt by itself)
1 3/4 granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon pure lemon extract
1 cup yogurt
Glaze:
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
About 3 cups powdered sugar
Oven & Special Equipment:
Bundt pan
Set to 350F, rack in the middle.
Instructions:
Pre: butter Bundt pan thoroughly and toss flour into it making sure it is coated. Tap the rest of the flour out of the pan so you have a thin coating.
1. Sift together flour, baking powder and baking soda. Set aside.
2. Cream together granulated sugar and butter in an electric mixer until light and cream colored. Lots of "air" inside. I beat it on a high speed for a couple minutes.
3. Add vanilla extract for the cake into wet mixture and mix thoroughly.
4. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix thoroughly.
5. Add lemon extract and mix thoroughly.
6. Now grab that dry ingredient mixture you set aside and alternate with the yogurt mixing into the wet ingredients.
7. Spoon into the Bundt pan and spread evenly. Cook for about 50 minutes. You have to know your oven. I cooked mine for 30 minutes at 350 and the last 20 at 250 and it came out PERFECTLY.
8. While it's cooking, pour milk and vanilla extract for the glaze into your electric mixer's bowl. Let sit while caking is cooking.
9. While cake is cooling, add in the powdered sugar to the glaze mix until you get you desired consistency. It wants to be runny enough to dribble over the cake but not too runny that it runs right off.
Enjoy!!
