Tips:
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use 1 tablespoon of bottled lemon juice plus 1 teaspoon of lemon zest.
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients mix together more easily.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake the cake, or it will be dry.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
