Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325F degrees
Spray your 10-inch bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
I like to use the spray that has flour in it, it's called Baker's Joy.
In a medium bowl, combine all the cake ingredients.
Mix until thoroughly combined.
Pour batter into bundt pan.
Bake for about 45-55 minutes (until inserted toothpick or fork comes out clean).
Allow to cool completely, then remove from bundt pan.
Start preparing icing.
If you're using a fresh lemon, you might like to zest a bit of the lemon for more flavor.
That step is totally optional.
In a small bowl, combine sugar and lemon juice. Add milk in slowly until you've reached desired consistency.
You may want your icing a bit thicker or more like a glaze. That part is completely up to you.
This icing is nice and tangy and brings a nice balance of flavor alongside the sweet cake.
Pour icing over cake.
And serve. That is sunshine on a plate right there!
Go on - take a bite!
Enjoy!
