Any help is appreciated!Do you have any good lemon layer cake recipes?
Lemon Layer Cake
2.5 cups sifted flour
2 tsp. baking powder
.25 tsp. baking soda
.25 tsp. salt (optional)
8 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
2 tsp. lemon zest
1.25 cups sugar
2 large eggs
.5 cup milk
.5 cup lemon juice
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Flour, line and grease 2 8-inch round cake pans.
Combine sifted flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. In a large mixing bowl combine butter and lemon zest and beat until fluffy. Gradually beat in sugar (the slower, the better) until completely combined. Add eggs one at a time, then beat 2 to 3 minutes until the batter is light and fluffy.
Beat .25 of dry ingredients into the wet batter, and then add all of the milk. Beat until combined. Add the remaining dry ingredients, alternating with lemon juice, beginning and ending with the dry.
Divide batter between the two cake pans and smooth with spatula.
Place pans on the middle rack in oven. Bake for 25 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched. Cool in pans on rack for 10 minutes.
Apply lemon butter cream frosting, using .5 cup for the filling (I like to use raspberry jam instead), and the remaining 2 cups for frosting. Serve at room temperature.

3 large egg whites

1 cup butter at room temperature

In a stainless steel double boiler over simmering water combine sugar and egg whites. Whisk until just warm and dissolved (don鈥檛 scramble the eggs!). Remove from heat and beat with an upright mixer until stiff peaks form. If separation occurs, continue beating on high, or cool to room temperature.
Once the mixture reaches room temperature add butter one tablespoon at a time, beating until smooth. Add lemon zest and continue beating at medium speed. Add lemon juice and beat on high until smooth.Do you have any good lemon layer cake recipes?

This is the absolute best lemon cake I have ever had. I'd make it every day if my tummy would let me get away with it...
INGREDIENTS
* 1 (18.25 ounce) package lemon cake mix
* 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
* 3/4 cup vegetable oil
* 4 eggs
* 1 cup lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix and pudding mix, then stir in the oil. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the lemon-lime soda.
3. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.
According to the recipe, it's a bundt cake, but I've made it with other pans and had no trouble. Just adjust the cooking time (if it'll be a thinner cake, bake it less time). You could ice it with a powdered sugar/lemon juice icing or use a cream cheese frosting.
Try this one.
