Ingredients

Scale

Cake:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
  • ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup whole milk

Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
  3. Add Eggs and Lemon: Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in lemon zest and lemon juice until well combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Mix Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with milk, and mix until smooth.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Prepare Glaze: While the cake bakes, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
  8. Cool and Glaze: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to set before serving.
