Ingredients

  • Cake
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 9 egg yolks (I told you it was bad!)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • Glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1 -2 tablespoon warm water

Method

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Generously grease and flour a bundt pan.
  • In a large mixer bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Blend in lemon extract. Add remaining ingredients. Blend at low speed just until thoroughly combined, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until top springs back when touched lightly in the center. Cool 30 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely and drizzle with glaze.
  • For glaze: In a small bowl, place the extract and powdered sugar; stir in only enough water to make proper drizzling consistency.
