Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter and flour a 9-inch round cake pan (2 inches deep). In a medium saucepan, cover lemon slices with 3 cups water. Add pinch of salt, cover, and bring to a boil over high. Boil lemons, partially covered, until very tender, 15 minutes. Drain in a colander and transfer to a food processor, along with lemon juice; process until smooth. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter on medium, 2 minutes. Gradually add granulated sugar and continue to beat until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down bowl as needed. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
- With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with 2 additions buttermilk. Beat in vanilla, then fold in lemon mixture.
- Transfer batter to pan and bake until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack, 20 minutes. Remove cake from pan and let cool completely on rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with raspberries and cream, if desired.

LEMON CAKE FROM SCRATCH
Super yummy, light lemon taste. A different thing to try is to put the cake mixture into large muffin tins to make a bunch of little cakes, you just need to reduce the baking time. Let cake cool before frosting or glaze while still slightly warm.

LEMON CAKES
In the "A Song of Ice and Fire" book series (later known on television as "Game of Thrones"), George R.R. Martin devotes a lot of ink to lemon cakes, a favorite of the Lady of Winterfell Sansa Stark. The cakes have since become a pop culture totem for fans of the series. This recipe is inspired by a version found in "A Feast of Ice and Fire: The Official Game of Thrones Companion Cookbook" by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel and Sariann Lehrer. You don't need to be a fan of "Game of Thrones" to love these cookielike treats, which are dense in texture, bright in flavor and boast a tart-sweet lemon glaze. The cakes are easy to throw together for a potluck or to satisfy a teatime craving.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and granulated sugar. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives to form crumbs with some pebbly bits, then zest the lemons directly into the bowl. In another small bowl, combine the egg and egg yolks. Squeeze 1 tablespoon juice from a lemon and mix into the eggs. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture, and gently stir until the dough comes together.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and space 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until the tops look just set and dry, 12 to 13 minutes. Cool completely on the sheets.
- Place the confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Squeeze 1 1/2 teaspoons juice from a lemon, and stir into the confectioners' sugar until smooth and the consistency of icing. Add more lemon juice if needed. Drizzle over the cooled cookies. Let stand until set.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemons will give your cake the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Zest your lemons before juicing them. The zest of a lemon is the outermost layer of the peel, and it contains a lot of flavor. When you zest a lemon, you're removing this flavorful layer and adding it to your cake.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking a lemon cake is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake the cake at a higher temperature, it will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If you bake the cake at a lower temperature, it will take longer to cook and the texture will be dense.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. If you frost the cake while it's still warm, the frosting will melt and slide off. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack before frosting it.
Conclusion:
Lemon cake is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's light, fluffy, and bursting with lemon flavor. With these tips, you can make a delicious lemon cake that everyone will love.
