Lemon Bundt Cake with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting . . . this buttery lemon cake is absolutely scrumptious, and the frosting is out of this world!
I love cooking and baking with lemons. Their flavor is just so darn fresh and yummy! I first tried this lemon cake at a baby shower years ago and I think I may have groaned after the first bite. I made sure to get the recipe from my friend the very next day.
This cake is seriously amazing, and the frosting is what makes it. It is to die for. No kidding. I could eat it by the spoonful right out of the bowl. Doesn’t it just look incredible?
