There’s just something about pound cake, am I right? So dense and buttery, it practically melts in your mouth.  I just love how simple yet delicate it is. And it’s even better when accented with bright lemon!

When I was creating this recipe, I really wanted it to taste like lemon.  There should be no two ways about it, when you take a bite, you want to know that it’s a lemon cake! So we are using 2 whole lemons (zest and juice), plus a couple of teaspoons of lemon extract. The result is WOW! Your whole kitchen will be filled with the aromas of tangy lemon and sweet butter.  And the taste is incredible!  So much sunshine-y lemon flavor. One of my favorite things about a bundt cake is that it can really serve a crowd.  This recipe yields about 16 servings!  So it’s perfect for holiday entertaining.  Everyone loves pound cake.  Everyone loves lemon.  And everyone loves a bundt cake!  

If you have any leftovers, just wrap them up nice and tightly in an airtight container.  They’ll keep for a few days at room temp, or 2 weeks in the fridge.  And they’re so good with a cup of tea or coffee! Make this lemon pound cake bundt!  It will brighten your whole day!
