This is what we’re going to need to make our delicious pound cake. My flour of choice. I either use white lily or swan down. I love swan down cake flour to make my cakes. And this is everything we’re going to need. I’m going to put as we add and I’ll let you know what I’m doing. And I’ll put the recipe for this delicious pound cake down below. And this is uh some Jell-O instant pudding I’m going to add inside of the cake. And also, I’m going to make a slurry to go on top of the cake with this. And also, this is my sugar. The sugar is 2 and 1/2 cups of sugar. And so what sis did, she uh zested lemon to go in here. Now, if you going to make a pound cake like this and you really want that lemon flavor, go ahead and zest your um lemon in and add your sugar and um the night before so the oil from the sugar will release and this sugar is going to smell good. Sister said, “It smells good, doesn’t it, sister?” You can smell it. That sugar and that lemon together. So, let’s go ahead and get uh started. If you want to get a pencil or a pen and a piece of paper, but I’m going to tell you everything that I’m putting in. the first thing. Oh, here here here’s Big Bera here, y’all. Big boy. Oh, yeah. Big record. You know, I hate I hate using this one, but I’m gonna use it. Um I have one out in the garage and I have a hand mixer, but for what I need to do with the butter and the sugar, I’m going to need uh need to use this big boy right here. So, we what we’re going to do, we’re going to cream three sticks of butter, 2 and 1/2 cups of of uh sugar, and with the zest of the lemon, we’re going to uh cream these in there. And then we’ll start building our cake. And I tell you what all we’re going to do. Okay, let’s go. So, we’re going to crack our eggs, too. So, let’s go ahead and get this started. So, this is everything that we’re going to need. Now, our buttermilk high powdered sugar is for the topping. Okay, we have our baking powder and salt mixed together. And one of these right here is this Jell-O pudding is about two tablespoons of that. And we have our baking. We have our lemon flavor. We have our um lemon, fresh lemon juice. And I would advise don’t use any artificial lemon bottle lemon. If you want a good cake, a good lemon cake, use fresh lemon. Okay, so let’s go ahead and get it started. Okay, family. So, we have um our three sticks of room temperature butter, 2 and 1/2 cups of um sugar and with the zest of maybe a lemon and a half we had. So, we going to go ahead and start this and we’re going to let it we going to let it blend together until it get light and fluffy. Okay, family. We going in with one at a time for the edge. [Music] [Music] Okay, family. Now we have our we have our um three cups of flour. So we’re going in with our baking powder and salt. And we going in with our lemon pudding. And it’s any brand of lemon pudding. And we’re going to sift that. Okay. We’re going to get that sifted and we’re going to get it ready to uh go in this mixer with our dry ingredients. Okay. Flaming. We’re going in with our lemon flavor. vanilla flavor. And I’ll give you the measurements for that. And also our uh juice, our lemon juice. So, we’re going to start this again. [Music] So, we’re going to go ahead and add one cup of our flour mixture. And Let that mix. [Applause] [Music] Okay, our flour mixture and buttermilk. So, we’re going to continue to alternate this. Okay, y’all. We uh scraping our bowl down some. This partic particular uh KitchenAid. So, the reason I don’t care for it, y’all, because it don’t lift up. This part don’t lift up. Okay. So, we I’m going to scrape the just scrape this bowl down the best I can. Okay, family. We greased and u fled our pan. We greased it with some Crisco. And we’re going to go ahead and get this cake pan filled up with our batter. Okay, family. Our cake is in the oven. It’s on 325 and it’s going to be in there about an hour and 12 minutes. But it all depends on your oven, y’all. So, uh, just, um, just think about that because my oven sometimes it cook a little bit longer. So, we going in with about 3 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. And this is, uh, two cups of powdered sugar. And that’s fresh lemon juice. We’re going in with about um, let’s say 2 tablebspoon of that lemon pudding mix. Okay. So now we’re going in with just a tinch of buttermilk. Just a little bit. You can use water in this if you want to, but I’m going to use a little bit of buttermilk. So we’re going in with about a tablespoon of buttermilk. And we and we’re going in with one cap full of vanilla flavor. Okay. So we’re going to mix this together. So we’re going to mix this until all of that powdered sugar is dissolved in there real good. And we’re going to set this aside. And this is what we’re going to drizzle on top of our pound cake, our delicious lemon pound cake. Okay. So, this is about the consistency that I want. So, if you want yours a little bit thinner, you can add a little bit more milk if you want to or water. Okay, family. We are going in with our lemon drizzle. And I’m just going to spread this on top like a icing because it’s kind of thick. Okay, family. Our cake is cool. So, I poured the the icing on there and the icing was thick, so I sort of just just let it glide over the cake. And I had some strawberries in the refrigerator that I did not want to go back. You know, I’m famous for using my vegetables and fruit that I don’t want to go back. So, we’re going to go ahead and give this cake a cut. And we’re going to have a slice.

No, heavy cream. When you use a heavy cream, it’s a good stabilizer. But I like to even when I’m doing powdered sugar, I like to put a little bit of that little. If you’re doing strawberry cake, put a little strawberry um instant pudding or whatever kind of instant pudding.
