Baking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 12x17 inch sheet pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gradually add the dry flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture, alternating between the two, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the lemon juice and zest.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges pull away from the sides and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth, then gradually add the powdered sugar. Fold in the lemon juice and lemon zest to taste.
- Spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the cooled cake and garnish with additional lemon zest or slices if desired.
