7UP CAKE
I love a clandestine soda in the preparation of food, a flash of carbonation where the French might use wine, or brandy. It may be transgressive to say so, but I'm hardly alone, for all those who cringe at the thought. Page through church or community cookbooks and you'll find examples: Coke-spiked Jell-O situations, root beer-glazed fillets of salmon, beans simmered in Moxie. This recipe for a lemon-and-lime soda cake came to me a while back from a Times reader who thought I'd appreciate it (I did!). She said she'd gotten it from a grandmother down south, who stored it on an index card placed in her copy of the cookbook published by the Symphony League of Jackson, Miss., in 1971. The original called for oleo and Crisco oil. I swapped these out for dairy and neutral oil, and a little less soda, and an additional 15 minutes in the oven. This leaves the cake toast-brown and glistening, glossy-crumbed and high-risen, a marvelous moist yellow within. I'm no shill for Big Soda. You could just as easily make it with plain sparkling water and a spritz of lemon or lime. You could make it with sparkling wine!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Coat a 10-inch Bundt pan with cooking spray and dust it with flour, knocking out the excess.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter and granulated sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat for about 5 minutes until very fluffy.
- One at a time, add the eggs, beating well after each addition, and stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula after each, until very smooth.
- Add the lime zest, lime juice, and vanilla and beat to combine.
- Add the flour in five additions, alternating with the 7UP, beginning and ending with the flour, and beating until well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake for about 1 hour until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then invert it onto a serving plate.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the confectioners' sugar, milk, and lemon juice until very smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled 7UP cake and serve.
Tips:
- Use a 9x13 inch baking pan for the cake to ensure that it bakes evenly.
- Make sure the oven is preheated to 350°F (175°C) before baking the cake.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it.
- For a creamier frosting, use cold butter and cream cheese.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting onto the cake.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
7-Up sheet cake is a classic Southern dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The cake is moist and fluffy, with a sweet and tangy flavor.
