Lemon Bundt Cake
Recipe- Cook’s Illustrated
I’m back!! You probably didn’t know I was gone though Haha OHHHH WELLLL!
I decided to make a Lemon Bundt Cake from Cook’s Illustrated and used a Heritage Bundt Pan from Williams & Sonoma I’ve been eyeing this pan for awhile. I love the grooves and shape! It’s pretty right?
Process- It’s a simple cake recipe- mix dry ingredients then add wet ingredients slowly. The only time consuming part was micro planning the lemon zest! I did take my time to greasing the pans. The grooves are deep and I was scared that the pretty sharp points were going to stick to the pan BUT they didn’t. ;)
Taste-
This baby is light, airy and perfectly lemony. The outside of the cake is crisp but the inside is light, but still has texture to it. It’s really delicious with the lemon glaze and the sugar covered raspberries. Let’s talk about that for a second, SUGAR COVERED RASPBERRIES. I’ve never taken the time to simply cover them in sugar. WOW. Especially when the raspberries are room temp AND they are beautiful. I almost like them better than the cake. Sorry cook’s illustrated.
Random Thoughts-
Ok-so much has happened! Biden is our pres. Thank god. I feel totally relieved. Let’s get agent orange out and move on. Please.
The time changed as you know and it gets VERY dark VERY early. I decided to take my pictures today right before sunset and wow. I love them. Moody pics (lack of light) are my jam. I’m going to try to get my moodiness on from now on. It is fall/winter for pete’s sake. (cool expression)
I took a break for about two weeks because of my treat boxes, job interview and family photos. It’s been exhausting but great! I have decided to apply for my cottage license and start selling goods regularly. Who know if anyone will buy them. I might as well try!
Taylor and I started watching Moonbase 8. It’s hilarious, but not. You really have to like John, Fred and Tim. Oh and I finally finished Emily in Paris. UGHHHH give. me. her. life. It seems like a dreaaaaammmmm.
OH! I’ll be selling treats at The Shop for an event on December 4th! Check them out! They are an artist collective.
This week I’m hoping to make Madeline’s, cookies and Concha’s if I have enough time.
Feels good to be back! Read ya soon! Not sure if that makes sense.
