For an extra lemony flavor, add the zest of one lemon to the batter. If you don't have lemon extract, you can use 1 tablespoon of lemon zest instead. The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For a richer cake, substitute melted butter for the vegetable oil.
