• Place a sieve over a large bowl. Add the flour, cornstarch, and baking soda and sift. Set aside. In a 2 cup measuring cup, combine the buttermilk and sour cream and whisk to combine, set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter for about 1 minute on medium speed. When the butter starts to lighten in color, reduce the speed to low and add the sugar. Increase the speed to medium and allow the butter and sugar mixture to become fluffy.

Using a rubber spatula, give the mixture a final mix.
• Spread the cake batter into the prepared sheet pan. Smooth it out into an even layer with your rubber spatula. Bake the cake for 21-25 minutes stopping at the 12 minutes mark and rotating the pan.

• FROSTING: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the butter for 1-2 minutes or until the butter is light and fluffy. Using a rubber spatula, remove the butter from the bowl into a small bowl. Add the cream cheese and whip for 30 seconds or until the cream cheese is light and fluffy. Add the butter back into the cream cheese mixture along with the lemon juice and 3 1/2 cups of the powdered sugar. Start the machine on the stir setting until mostly combined, then increase the speed and whisk for another 1-2 minutes. If your frosting isn't holding its shape, add the remaining 1 cup of confectioners sugar in and whisk to combine.
• Spread the frosting all over the cooled cake. Top with sanding sugar and fresh berries if desired. The cake will last covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

VANILLA SHEET CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Butter and flour a 9x13-in pan, or use nonstick cooking spray with flour in it, such as Baker's Joy or Pam with Flour.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or beaters), beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the vanilla, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. (Don't worry if the batter looks a little curdled at this point.)
• Reduce the speed to low, then beat in one-third of the flour mixture, followed by half of the buttermilk. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, then add another third of the flour, followed by the remaining buttermilk. Beat in the remaining flour, then scrape down the bowl and beat again until the batter is evenly combined. Do not overmix.
• Scrape the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the cake is set and lightly golden around the edges, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Set the cake on a wire rack to cool completely.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or beaters), combine the cream cheese, butter, vanilla and salt. Mix on low speed until combined, then increase the speed to medium-high and beat until aerated and light, about 2 minutes. Stop the mixer and add about half of the confectioners' sugar; mix on low to combine. Gradually add the remaining sugar, keeping the speed on low. Once all of the sugar is mixed in, increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute.
• When the cake is cool, use a butter knife or small offset spatula to swirl the frosting lavishly over top. The cake is best enjoyed fresh on the day it is baked, but it will keep nicely for a few days. Store in an airtight container (or cover tightly with plastic wrap) at room temperature.
