Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Cut out two 9-inch round segments of parchment paper to line your cake pans with. Spray each pan generously - sides and bottom - with nonstick cooking spray, then place the parchment paper cut out in the bottom of the pans and spray again. It's important to make sure every bit of pan and paper are sprayed so your cakes don't get stuck. Set pans aside.
- In a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer (or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment), combine the butter, both sugars, lemon zest, lemon extract, and vanilla extract; beat on medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes (don't skimp on time here!). Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, mixing well to evenly combine the ingredients. Add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until everything is just barely combined. You should still see some lumps and dry streaks. Turn mixer off. Add in the milk, sour cream, and lemon juice; use a rubber spatula to fold the ingredients into the mixture, stirring until everything is incorporated, but being sure not to overmix. Set aside.
- In another bowl, gently toss the raspberries with 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Add the raspberries, and any remaining flour, to the batter and fold in by hand, using a rubber spatula, until just combined. Again, be sure not to over mix! Over mixing is very easy to do, and will result in a dry, dense cake.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the tops are firm and slightly golden, and a cake tester (or toothpick) inserted in the center comes out clean, or with a few moist (but not wet) crumbs clinging to it.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before gently running a knife around the edges to loosen any stuck bits, then turning them out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- While the cakes cool, you can make the frosting.

LEMON MOUSSE WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE
This is a rich and intense lemon mousse, so small portions, lavished with an uncooked raspberry puree, will satisfy every lemon lover in the crowd. You can present this mousse in a large bowl instead of individual glasses, although it will take an additional three hours to set. Developed by Michael Mclaughlin, this recipe is from a June 1988 issue of Bon Appetit.Fresh berries are better than frozen, I think. Cooling and refrigerating time not included in prep time.

LEMON-RASPBERRY MOUSSE
This is a dessert I have been making since I found the recipe in the 80's. It is probably my most requested dessert. It has quite a number of steps, but is not difficult. It does have raw egg whites, but I have never heard of anyone having a problem. Be sure to use a clear glass bowl to see the lovely pink swirls in the lemon mousse!

Steps:
- Drain raspberries well and reserve syrup, if desired, for another use. Press berries through fine sieve to extract seeds. You should have 1/3 cup of raspberry puree. Stir in confectioners sugar, and set aside.
- Lightly beat egg yolks in top of double boiler or small, heavy saucepan. Add 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice and cook, stirring constantly, over simmering water or low heat, until thick. Do not let mixture boil.
- Soften gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water in separate small saucepan, and dissolve over low heat, stirring. Add the dissolved gelatin and lemon rind to lemon custard and cool mixture to room temperature, stirring occasionally to keep gelatin well blended with the custard.
- Beat room temperature egg whites until they hold soft peaks. Continue beating as you add 3/4 cup sugar.
- Whip cream in large mixing bowl with remaining tablespoon of sugar until stiff (but not too stiff). Fold in first the custard mixture, then the beaten egg whites. Do not overmix.
- Turn half of the mousse into a glass serving bowl. Drizzle with half of the raspberry puree. Add the rest of the mousse and drizzle remaining puree over top. Holding a table knife vertically, swirl raspberry puree through mousse with a couple of figure-eight turns. Again, do not overmix; raspberry puree should remain in streaks. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill until firm. Can hold for 1-2 days.
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before beginning, ensure all ingredients and equipment are ready and measured accurately. This streamlines the baking process.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring eggs, butter, and cream cheese to room temperature before mixing for a smooth and well-blended batter.
- Zest Before Juicing: Zest your lemons before juicing them to extract the flavorful oils from the skin. Zest adds a fragrant citrus aroma and flavor to the cake and mousse.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar: Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, incorporating plenty of air. This step ensures a tender and moist cake.
- Folding Egg Whites: When incorporating egg whites into the cake batter, gently fold them in using a spatula. Overmixing can deflate the egg whites, resulting in a denser cake.
- Chilling the Mousse: After preparing the raspberry mousse, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours or overnight for a firm and stable texture. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
- Decorating with Raspberries: Before serving, garnish the cake with fresh raspberries. This adds a vibrant pop of color and enhances the overall presentation.

This delectable lemon cake with raspberry mousse is a delightful treat that combines the tangy sweetness of lemon with the lusciousness of raspberries. With its moist and fluffy texture, zesty lemon flavor, and creamy mousse filling, this cake is sure to impress.
