2 teaspoons finely chopped lemon zest

To serve:

Fresh raspberries

Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 9-inch lightweight Bundt pan. Sift 1 3/4 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon baking powder together in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.

2. In a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed or in a food processor fitted with the metal blade, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in the eggs, zest and lemon extract and mix for 2 more minutes.

3. Reduce the mixer to the lowest speed, add half the flour mixture, and mix until well combined. Add half the sour cream, mixing constantly, and then add the rest of the flour and sour cream, ending with the sour cream.

4. Combine the raspberries in a small bowl and sprinkle over the 2 tablespoons flour; coat the berries with the flour. Fold the berries evenly into the batter, making sure not to break up the berries.

5. Pour the mixture into the prepared Bundt pan and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a cake rack. Make the glaze.

6. Using a wire strainer, sift the powdered sugar into a small nonaluminum bowl. Add the juice and lemon zest and whisk to break up any lumps.

7. Place the cake on a parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheet. Using a long skewer, poke holes in the cake almost going through the bottom at 1-inch intervals. Slowly pour the glaze over the cake, making sure the glaze is absorbed as you pour. Let the cake come to room temperature.

8. To serve, slice the cake and accompany with raspberries and whipped cream or ice cream.
