1 c. (2 sticks) butter
2 c. sugar
1 c. (1/2 pt.) sour cream
4 eggs, beaten (beat in one at a time)
3 c. sifted flour, sifted 5 times (cake flour optional)
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. lemon extract

Preheat oven at 375°F. Set to the side 3 cups sifted cake flour and baking powder. Mix eggs, butter, sugar and sour cream until smooth and creamy. Slowly add flour mix, then lemon extract. Grease and flour a Bundt or tube pan. Bake at 375°F for 1 hour.

TIP: Put water in a pan and place it underneath the cake on a rack. This keeps the cake soft.
