Pucker Up for this Lemon Cake
This cake is so lemony fresh you might just want kiss your plate!
About a year after I was married, my husband and I were able to purchase our first home. I was super excited about our little yellow house with the white trim but a bit nervous about meeting the neighbors on our cul-de-sac.
I could tell there were young families in the area because I say hop-scotch games down on the sidewalk with chalk, and bikes of various sizes.
The day after we unloaded the moving truck my husband had to go to work. I was left to take care of unloading and deciding where to put things. I knew it was going to be a long couple of weeks.
A few hours later I heard the doorbell.
There, standing on my front step was a young girl with her mom. She was holding a plate and on it sat a beautiful bundt cake.
“These lemons came from our yard!” the girl said.
And that how I met one of my very first neighbors.
I invited them in and we enjoyed getting to know eash other over a lemony bundt cake. I think of them every time I make this.
This is what Jessica of Sprinkle Some Sugar has to say about his luscious cake.
It is sort of dense – think: pound cake – but it is so ridiculously soft, moist and packed with lemony flavor. The lemon glaze on top really brings this dessert over the top and really packs a big punch of lemony flavor.
