For an even more intense lemon flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of lemon extract to the batter. If the top of the cake starts to brown too quickly during baking, tent it loosely with aluminum foil. This cake is delicious served on its own, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The cake tastes even better the next day after the syrup has fully permeated it.
