Need something to brighten up a dreary day? This is a cake to make you forget all about the soggy gray weather outside. I know, because it happened to me.
Last Sunday we had a potluck to attend and, well, due to pantry limitations, I had decided to bring either a Meyer lemon tart or a chocolate bundt cake. Approaching the decision in a typically sideways manner, I ended up making a lemon bundt.
Cook's Illustrated calls this lemon bundt cake "The Best" and I can't really disagree with them. While I always hesitate to apply that title myself (it doesn't leave any room for improving), it is after all, a lot easier than calling it The Pretty Dang Close To What I Imagine The Best Lemon Bundt Cake Would Taste Like.

*Fake buttermilk: a tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar stirred into one cup of milk and left for 5 minutes. Real buttermilk is always best if you have it, but I never seem to have it when I need it.
yummy...I want some!
ReplyDeleteHi Marta... I could go for a piece right about now too! I wonder if I've got everything to make another one?
