  2. Beat eggs and sugar together until lemon colored and frothy, I do this part with my hand held mixer.
  3. Add egg and sugar mixture to flour and butter mixture and mix until smooth and creamy.
  4. Place batter into a greased and floured 10” tube cake pan. Tap the bottom of the pan on a counter top a couple of times to get rid of any air bubbles.
