Ice Box Lemon Drop Cake

Lemon Cake With Chantilly Cream

“This recipe has always had a soft spot in my heart since I was a little girl. The cake portion can easily be turned into a loaf of lemon bread. And no matter how you slice this, it is just the right amount of lemon flavor without being overly tart or sweet.” – Shay
