Mother's Day Cake

Happy belated Mother's day to all you mom's out there.  I hope your day was a good one.  Mine was, just a beautiful Sunday enjoying the family.  Anyway I had to try out the cake that was on the cover of Better Homes and Gardens on the May issue.  

So pretty right?  It was delicious and pretty easy.  I feel like making a cake from scratch is never a 5 minute task, but if you like baking it does not take that long.  Also, lemon is my favorite...I seriously could eat a whole pan of lemon bars!  That is why I don't make them. For mother's day though I figured I could enjoy a little sliver of cake right???  A little sliver or a big slice what is the difference right for us hard working mom's?  Top it off with some delicious Stroh's vanilla ice cream...does not get better than that!  So here are the pics of my cake, I have to say maybe not exactly the same, but I was pretty proud how even my layers turned out!

The recipe is linked in the pink, I hope you try it! Until next time....Kim
