In a separate bowl, mix the butter, eggs, sour cream, and lemon juice together.

Step 4

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix well.

Step 5

Pour the cake batter into the greased sheet pan.

Step 6

Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cake starts to pull away from the pan and a toothpick comes out clean when poked in the center of the cake. NOTE: The top of this cake will not turn super golden brown like some white cakes will do when baking.

Step 7

Let the cake cool before frosting.

Step 8

Using a mixer, hand mixer or by hand mix all of the frosting ingredients together. You can add more or less fresh squeezed lemon juice to taste. ***I love a lot of frosting on my cake. If you are frosting it and it just seems like too much for you, don't worry about using it all! Use only what you like!
