This is a moist, refreshing cake that presents beautifully. The inspiration for it came from a friend who loves the flavor of lemon and from luvmybge's Chocolate Bavarian Torte (recipe #106926). I wanted to use 9 inch cake pans but wanted the split layers to be a bit thicker so I have to thank Laurie for her Cake Mix Extender (recipe #54269). I hope you enjoy this as much as my company did. My thanks to luvmybge and Laurie.
