Ingredients
  

Cake:

  • 1 package 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • Grated rind of 1 lemon
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk

Glaze:

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup sugar

Instructions
 

Cake:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In large beater bowl beat cream cheese and butter. Beat in the sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs and beat until thoroughly blended.
  • Add lemon rind, flour, baking powder, salt and milk. Blend at low speed just until thoroughly combined.
  • Pour batter in a greased 10 inch bundt or tube pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes. Insert a toothpick or cake tester in the centre to test for doneness - it should come out clean. Do not underbake.

Glaze:

  • Combine lemon juice and sugar. Pour over the hot cake, allowing it to run down the edges between the cake and pan.
  • Cool cake in the pan for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges, place a cake plate over top of the pan. Turn the plate and pan over, and carefully remove the pan, so that the cake is sitting on the plate. Cool thoroughly.
