luscious lemon drizzle cake

This is one of my favourite cakes and it's easy peasy!

Ingredients:
100g melted butter
175g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
175g caster sugar
2 Large eggs
6 tbsp milk
finely grated lemon rind of one large lemon

for the drizzle:
juice of 1 large lemon (about 3 tbsp)
100g caster sugar

Method:

Stick your oven on 180 degrees, Use shallow oblong tin (18 x 28 cm) or a normal round cake tin and grease it well.
Put all of the ingredients for the cake in a bowl and mix, until it drops easily off the spoon.
Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 30-40 minutes.

Meanwhile make the drizzle ... just beat the sugar and lemon juice together.

Pour the mixture over the cake whilst its still hot.

et voila ... enjoy!

I don't mess around with this cake - the taste speaks for itself! If you wanted to you could add a few drops of yellow food colouring to make it yellower. Occasionally i cover it with tiny sugar balls just to make it look a little more exciting if i'm giving it as a gift.
