LEMON POUND CAKE IS THE PERFECT DESSERT TO MAKE THIS WEEKEND

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325˚. Thoroughly coat a 10-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter with the granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. With the mixer on medium-low speed, add the salt, then mix in the flour 1 cup at a time, mixing after each addition. With the mixer on low speed, mix in the soda and then the lemon zest. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix again.
• Add large spoonfuls of batter to the Bundt pan until the pan is filled, then smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, 70 to 75 minutes. Let cool on a rack for 15 minutes, then carefully turn out the cake onto the rack and let cool completely.
• For the glaze: Spread out the lemon zest on a plate and air-dry for about 30 minutes. Combine the powdered sugar, dried lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and water in a medium bowl. Gently whisk until thick but pourable, thinning with a little more lemon juice if needed. Put the cake on a cake stand or platter and use a large spoon to drizzle the glaze all over the cake. Let it set, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 6-cup loaf pan and line it with parchment or waxed paper. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter. Add 1 cup of the sugar and mix. With the mixer running at low speed, add the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla.
• Working in alternating batches, and mixing after each addition, add the dry ingredients and 1/4 cup of the lemon juice to the butter mixture. Mix until just smooth.
• Pour into the prepared pan and bake until raised in the center and a tester inserted into the center comes out dry and almost clean (a few crumbs are OK), 65 to 75 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and the remaining 1/3 cup lemon juice until the sugar is dissolved.
• When the cake is done, let cool in the pan 15 minutes (it will still be warm). Run a knife around the sides of the pan. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan with sides (to catch the glaze) and turn the cake out onto the rack. Peel off the waxed paper.
• Using a turkey baster or pastry brush, spread glaze all over the top and sides of the cake and let soak in. Repeat until the entire glaze is used up, including any glaze that has dripped through onto the sheet pan. Let cool at room temperature or, wrapped in plastic wrap, in the refrigerator (Well wrapped, the cake will last up to a week). Serve at room temperature, in thin slices.
