HOW MUCH SOUR CREAM TO MAKE CAKE MOIST RECIPES

Steps:

• Grease and flour a tube pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F
• In a separate bowl whisk the flour and baking powder to combine, set aside for later.
• Cream the butter with the paddle attachment in your mixer, gradually add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the eggs one at a time blending after each to incorporate.
• Add the vanilla and lemon to the mixing bowl. While mixing at medium speed, add the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream to the butter, sugar, & egg mixture. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. (I add the flour mixture three times and the sour cream twice). Mix until incorporated.
• Bake at 325 degrees for 60-70 minutes -Baking times may vary and so check on the cake as it nears the 1 hour mark. When an inserted toothpick comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached, it is ready.
• This makes approximately 8-8.5 cups of batter.
• Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before flipping out onto wire rack.
• Combine sugar with 1 Tablespoon of milk. Add additional milk if needed for desired thickness.
• Load into a piping bag with the tip snipped away and drizzle onto your cake (or you can drizzle by the spoonful).
• **If glaze is too thick, add a bit more milk. If it is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Make batter: Preheat oven to 350° and grease a bundt pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. 
• In another large bowl using a hand mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then add vanilla. Add about half of the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix until just a few dry streaks remain. Add sour cream and buttermilk and mix until incorporated. Add remaining dry ingredients and mix until just combined. 
• Make streusel: In a medium bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Add butter and use your hands to cut into mixture until pea-sized and starts to look like sand. 
• Add about half of the streusel mixture into bottom of bundt pan. Top with half of the cake batter and spread into an even layer. Top with remaining streusel and then spread the rest of the cake batter over top into an even layer. 
• Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then invert onto a cooling rack and let cool completely.
