    Absolutely the BEST lemon cake! You will not be dissapointed. However, I'd like to point out a couple of things: 1. The Contessa used extra-large eggs (which I did, but I wonder if large would suffice; and 2. She fails to mention to invert the cake after cooling for 10 minutes. I bake a lot so I figured that out on my own. But it should still be stated for someone who doesn't bake. Also, I pricked the top of the cake all over with a toothpick so it would absorb the lemon-sugar mixture.

    Delicious...the whole family loved it! Made a couple tweaks to the recipe that worked well and made it healthier. I used plain, nonfat Greek yogurt instead of whole-milk. Reduced the sugar in the cake batter to 3/4 c., doubled the vanilla, and substituted coconut oil (melted and cooled for the veg. oil. The subtle coconut flavor was great with the lemon/vanilla flavors. Like other reviewers, I used a cake tester to poke a whole bunch of holes in the cake before dousing it with the lemon sugar syrup. The final glaze is a must - yum!

    Awesome. I really enjoyed it the next day. I was not paying attention when i made the cake and put the 1/3 cup of sugar in the batter. A mistake, but i actually believe it was better because the cake was a little sweeter. I will make this again. O' and i did not make the glaze did not need the extra sugar.

    Very good but no one here felt the glaze was necessary. With the glaze, it was too sweet to eat. Without out, it was a popular dessert. This is a lemon flavored pound cake consistency.

    This cake was delicious. I poked some holes in it before pouring the lemon syrup.For the cooks that didn't think it was enough lemony, you could use a little lemon extract instead of vanilla?
    My husband said that was a *keeper*and I could make this cake again,lol.

    I made this cake twice. The first time I followed the directions to a tee. It was ok, but it needed more lemon flavor 2nd time I used 1/4 veg. oil and a 1/4 apple sauce. When the cake was cooled for 10 mins. I poked tiny holes from a cake tester all over the cake and then poured the lemon syrup all over it.. More moist with a little more lemon taste. Will make it again.
