Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Cream Bundt Cake Delight.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Generously coat a large fluted tube pan, also known as a Bundt pan, with shortening or cooking spray to ensure your cake releases effortlessly.
Step 3
In a spacious mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and shortening using an electric mixer, blending until the mixture is luxuriously creamy and smooth.
Step 4
Gradually introduce white sugar, beating until the blend becomes light and fluffy, creating a delightful base for your cake.
Step 5
Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to achieve perfect incorporation.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 7
Slowly add this dry mixture to the creamy concoction, alternating with milk, and mix on low speed until just combined, taking care to scrape down the bowl's sides as needed.
Step 8
To elevate the flavor, gently fold in the fragrant grated lemon zest.
Step 9
Pour the luscious batter into your prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even finish.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean, signaling that your cake is ready.
Step 11
While the cake bakes, whip up a simple glaze by mixing sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves completely.
Step 12
Once your cake is out of the oven, immediately drizzle the glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides for a beautiful finish.
Step 13
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before gently transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 14
Enjoy the delightful aroma and the sweet anticipation of your homemade lemon-glazed Bundt cake!.
