Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Zest
- 0.5 cup Lemon Juice
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round cake pan with unsalted butter, ensuring it’s ready for a smooth release after baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about three minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the batter is smooth and free from lumps.
- In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder, then gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients along with lemon zest and juice until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly, then bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
