How to Make Hazel's Lemon Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup powdered sugar and 2-3 tablespoons lemon juice until smooth. Add more lemon juice if needed to reach desired consistency.
  9. Once the cake is out of the oven, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  10. Gently poke holes all over the warm cake using a fork.
  11. Pour the lemon glaze evenly over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in.
  12. Let the cake cool completely before serving and enjoy!
