Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a 9x5 baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium sized bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar (and oil, if using) for 4-5 minutes until the mixture has lightened up in color. Beat in the eggs, one at a time until the mixture is smooth and shiny, making sure to scrape down the sides of your bowl as necessary.
- Add in the lemon zest and juice and the vanilla, then slowly drizzle in the heavy cream and mix until smooth and satiny.
- Add the dry ingredients into the wet and gently fold the two mixtures together using a spatula. Make sure to not over mix the batter; it is okay to have some lumps and some small dry patches. Transfer this batter into the prepared baking tin and bake in the oven for 45-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or until the cake springs back to the touch.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove it to cool on a wire rack until the cake is room temperature (if you can wait that long). At this point, slice it up, add some whipped cream and berries, enjoy it with an extra pat of butter or serve it plain in all it's delicious glory!
LEMON POUNDCAKE
A good lemon dessert is a foolproof crowd-pleaser, and this delightfully easy sour cream poundcake is no exception. The inside of the cake is sweet and tender, laced with a subtle lemon flavor throughout, while the outer part of the cake, brushed with a simple lemon juice-confectioners' sugar glaze, is distinctly tart and slightly crunchy. The two together is a sort of perfection.

Tips:
- Use room-temperature ingredients, except for the butter (which should be cold) and the eggs (which should be at room temperature). This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and result in a smoother batter.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, which will make the cake lighter and more tender.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the eggs from curdling.
- Sift the flour before measuring it. This will help ensure that the flour is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 325 degrees F (163 degrees C) for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
