I am so sorry for that error! I updated the recipe recently and discovered I prefer the texture of oil vs. butter in this cake. I forgot to update that paragraph. I apologize. The recipe card is correct though!

In your first set of directions you say to cream the butter “In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar with the lemon zest until light and fluffy, using either a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or an electric mixer. ”

You don’t mention butter in either of your ingredient lists. I have all the ingredients ready to go to make this and now I’m confused if I need butter and how much and if I leave it out will this be a bust and I’ve wasted all of the ingredients :/ sigh

I just used frozen cranberries and they worked perfect
