Lemon Drizzle Cake

Lemon Drizzle Cake


Ingredients:
  • Butter (softened) 8 oz
  • Caster sugar 8 oz
  • Flour 10 oz
  • Baking powder 2 tsp
  • Eggs 4
  • Milk 4 tbsp
  • Finely grated lemon rind of 2 lemons
Crunchy Topping:
  • Granulated sugar 6 oz
  • Lemon juice of 2 lemons
Method:
  • Pre-heat the oven to 160°C. Beat all ingredients well for about 2 minutes until well blended. Turn the mixture into a greased and lined tin. Level the top gently with the back of the spatula. Bake in the middle of the pre-heated oven for about 35-40 minutes or until the cake springs back when pressed lightly with a finger. Allow the cake to cool in the tin for a few minutes then lift out of the tin still in the lining paper. Carefully remove the paper. To make the crunchy topping, mix the lemon juice and granulated sugar in a small bowl to give a runny consistency. Spoon this mixture evenly over the traybake whilst it is still just warm. Cut into about squares when cold.
