Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Butter
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Lemon extract
- 2/3 cup Milk
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 large Egg whites
Instructions
- 1Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a baking pan or line with parchment paper. Sift the flour and baking powder together in a bowl.
- 2In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- 3Alternately add the dry ingredients (flour and baking powder mixture) and milk to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- 4Add the lemon extract and vanilla extract. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
- 5Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 6Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Cut with fancy cutters and serve.
