Lemon Cube Pound Cakes 🍋🍰
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 30 minutes | Total Time: 45 minutes | Servings: 9 cubes
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar. Slice into cubes and serve.
