Instructions to Make Lemon Cream Cake

Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 3-5 minutes of mixing with an electric mixer.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, and starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. The lemon juice will create a wonderfully soft and moist batter.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
