Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Lemon Zest from 2-3 lemons
  • ½ cup Vegetable Oil
  • 3 tablespoons Rainbow Sprinkles plus more after frosted

Lemon Glaze

  • cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • ½ teaspoon Lemon Extract
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease and flour a 9-10 cup bundt cake pan and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.  In a separate large bowl, whisk together sour cream, sugar, eggs, lemon zest and oil.  Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until combined.
  • Once the batter is mixed, gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles, then pour cake batter into the prepared bundt cake pan.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cake cool for about 5-10 minutes, then put a plate or serving dish on the top of the bundt cake pan and flip the cake onto the serving plate.
  • Drizzle the lemon glaze over the cake and let it set up before slicing to serve. Let the icing set for about 5 minutes, then decorate with more sprinkles as desired. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh raspberries, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!

Lemon Glaze

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon extract and vanilla extract. Add more lemon juice if necessary to reach your desired consistency.
