Description

This lemon-sour cream cake is easy and delish! A very dense cake that never lasts long in my house.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup butter, at room temperature
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 large lemon, zested and juiced, divided
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  2. 2. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl.
  3. 3. Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with sour cream, beating batter briefly after each addition. Stir in lemon zest and pour batter into the prepared pan.
  4. 4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 1 hour.
  5. 5. Stir 3 teaspoons lemon juice, powdered sugar, and butter in a small bowl until a thick glaze forms. Drizzle glaze over the cooled cake.
