Analyzing cooking steps...
Rolling lemons on the countertop before cutting and juicing helps to release more juice.
Using oil instead of butter in the batter helps to create an incredibly moist pound cake.
Measuring dry ingredients on parchment paper makes it easy to funnel them into the mixer without making a mess.
It is crucial to let the cake cool completely before adding the icing; otherwise, the icing will melt and become transparent instead of setting up nicely.
