Fan Recipe Request: Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

One of my husband's favorites, I make this cake for him every year on his birthday.

3 c. all-purpose flour
2 c. granulated sugar
1 tbsp. poppy seeds
1 c. butter, softened
1 c. buttermilk
4 eggs
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
4 tsp. grated lemon peel
Juice of two lemons

Dump everything in a mixing bowl. Mix well. Bake in a prepared bundt pan in a 325-degree oven for 1 hour.

Icing:

The icing is simply a mixture of fresh lemon juice and powdered sugar. If icing is too wet, add more powdered sugar until you achieve a drizzling consistency. Pour over cake. Let cool.
