1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups sifted flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 12 cup bundt pan with nonstick baking spray containing flour and set aside.
In large mixing bowl, beat butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute after each addition.
Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, and salt. Add to butter mixture alternately with buttermilk and lemon juice, beginning and ending with the dry ingredient mixture.
Spoon batter evenly into prepared pan and bake at 325 degrees F for 55-65 minutes until cake is lightly browned, set, and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in pan. Hold the pan with hot pads and gently shake until you can hear the cake bounce slightly in the pan. Quickly invert the cake onto serving plate and cool completely.
