LEMON BUTTERMILK SHEET CAKE
I found this recipe at Frankly Entertaining.com. It looked so good I had to try it...I thought the topping was quite unusual...It leaves a crunch, along with burst of lemon from the zest. This is one delicious cake... It will be going to work with me tomorrow, as I am the only lemon fan in the house... too darn dangerous to be...

Steps:
- 1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour 13 x 9 inch baking pan.
- 2. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl. Combine buttermilk, lemon juice, and vanilla in liquid measuring cup.
- 3. With electric mixer on medium speed, beat granulated sugar and lemon zest until moist and fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer ¼ cup sugar mixture to small bowl, cover, and reserve.
- 4. Add butter to remaining sugar mixture and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs and yolk, one at a time, until incorporated. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with 2 additions of buttermilk mixture, and mix until smooth, about 30 seconds. Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth top.
- 5. Bake until cake is golden brown and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer cake to wire rack and let cool 10 minutes.
- 6. For the glaze: Meanwhile, whisk confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and buttermilk until smooth. Gently spread glaze over warm cake and sprinkle evenly with reserved sugar mixture. Cool completely, at least 2 hours. I poked small holes in my cake with a fork. You don't have to...I just wanted some of the glaze to penetrate...
