Indulge in lemon-glazed pound cake for a delightful treat.
Ingredients:
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-cup fluted tube cake pan generously. In a large bowl, cream 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, remembering to scrape the bowl occasionally. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gently fold in the lemon peel.
  • Gently mix flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and milk on low speed until smooth, while occasionally scraping the sides of the bowl. Transfer the batter into the pan.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a heatproof plate.
  • In a 1-quart nonaluminum saucepan, gently heat the glaze ingredients over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted.
  • Use a long-tined fork or skewer to generously prick the top and sides of the cake. Brush the warm glaze over the cake, letting it soak in. Let it cool completely for about 1 hour and 30 minutes before serving. If desired, top with powdered sugar and edible flowers for garnish.
