I love Lemon Cakes!





Cake:





Vegetable oil spray for misting the pan


Flour for dusting the pan


1 package (18.25 ounces) plain yellow cake mix


1 package (3 ounces) lemon gelatin


2/3 cup vegetable oil, such as canola, corn, safflower, soybean, or sunflower


2/3 cup hot water


4 large eggs





Glaze:





1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted


2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)


1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest (from 1 lemon)





Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly mist a 12-cup Bundt pan with vegetable oil spray, then dust with flour. Shake out the excess flour. Set the pan aside.





Place the cake mix, gelatin, oil, water, and eggs in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stope the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes more, scraping down the sides if needed. The batter should look thick and well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the rubber spatula, and place the pan in the oven.





Bake the cake until it is light brown and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 40 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.





Meanwhile prepare the glaze Combine the confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth.





Run a long, sharp knife around the edge of the cake and invert it onto a serving platter. Spoon the glaze evenly over the warm cake so that it drizzles down the sides and into the center. Slice and serve warm, or let it cool before slicing.





Store this cake, covered in plastic wrap or placed under a cake dome, at room temperature for up to 1 week. Or freeze it, wrapped in foil, for up to 6 months. Thaw the cake overnight on the counter before serving.
Black Forest Cake:





Ingredients


陆 cup (110 g) butter, softened


1+录 cup (275 g) sugar


2 eggs


1+录 cup (140 g) all-purpose flour


陆 cup (50 g) unsweetened cocoa powder, natural


陆 teaspoon baking powder


1 teaspoon baking soda


1 teaspoon vanilla extract


戮 cup (1.8 dl) buttermilk





Ingredients for filling


录 cup Kirschwasser (Kirsch/cherry brandy), optional


2 cans (14 oz or 400 g) cherry pie filling or pitted cherries


3 cups (7.2 dl) heavy whipping cream, chilled


录 cup confectioners' sugar


Milk chocolate curls or shavings, for garnish


Maraschino cherries or sweet cherries, for garnish, optional





Method





1. Preheat oven to 350 deg F (Gas mark 4 or 180 deg C).


2. Line a 9 inch (23 cm) cake pan with greaseproof or other non-stick paper.


3. With an electric mixer, beat the softened butter with sugar until white and fluffy.


4. Add one egg at a time, mix well between each egg.


5. Add sifted flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and buttermilk, and mix until the batter is smooth.


6. Transfer to a cake pan and bake at 350 degrees just until set in the middle, approximately 45-60 minutes. A wooden pick inserted in center should come out with just a few moist crumbs on it. Do not over-bake!


7. When cake is cool, use a long serrated knife to cut the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. It is easier to cut if kept in a refrigerator for a few hours before cutting.





Filling





1. Drain cherry pie filling in a colander to remove most of the thickened juices.


2. Beat the whipping cream with confectioners' sugar until it thickens.


3. Using a vegetable peeler, shave chocolate; refrigerate until the cake is assembled.





Assembling





1. Sprinkle each layer of the cake with Kirschwasser.


2. Place one cake layer on a serving plate.


3. Spread about one fifth of the whipped cream on the layer, and strew half of the cherries on top of the whipped cream.


4. Add the second cake layer.


5. Spread one fifth of the whipped cream on the second layer and the remaining cherries on top.


6. Add the third cake layer.


7. Spread one fifth of the whipped cream on top and one fifth on the sides. Gently press chocolate curls on the sides and/or on top of the cake.





Variations





1. You may substitute the cherry pie filling with cherry jam. In that case spread first the jam on the cake layers, then whipped cream on top.


2. You may use three cake tins intead of one. In that case the baking time must be shortened.


3. If cake flour is used, the cake comes out much fluffier .
