Number Of Ingredients 14

1 Lemon (Juice and zest)
280 g Butter
285 g Caster or Granulated sugar
5 medium Eggs
285 g Self raising flour ((If using all purpose flour, add 2 teaspoons of baking powder))
1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
130 g Cream cheese (full fat)
65 g Butter
350 g Icing sugar (also called powdered sugar)
1/2 teaspoon Lemon extract
125 g Butter
250 g Icing sugar
1/2 teaspoon Lemon extract
Lemon zest

Steps:

  • Squeeze out the juice of the lemon and get the zest. Set aside. Prepare the cake pans by rubbing with butter then lining with parchment/baking paper. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and set aside. Preheat the oven at a temperature of 150C (fan) or 170C (Conventional oven).
  • In a mixing bowl, add the softened butter and sugar. Use an electric mixer to mix till it turns pale (light in color) and is fluffy. This is called the creaming process.
  • Break the eggs one at a time into the creamed butter/sugar mix and beat with the mixer till it comes together.Add the lemon juice and zest and whisk till it's combined.
  • Add flour/baking powder mix to the batter and use a spatula to mix. When it's come together, use the mixer to mix till smooth (This takes about 30 seconds. Do not overmix).
  • Divide the cake batter equally into the two prepared cake pans. Put the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or till a cake tester when inserted comes out clean.
  • Bring out the cakes and leave them in the pan for 5 minutes before turning onto a cake rack to cool.
  • When cakes are completely cooled, you can then fill and cover with frosting.

LEMON SPONGE CAKE

I found this in an old Nebraska 4-H cookbook the other day. It's wonderfully moist! I would suggest to maybe put a little more lemon juice than suggested (I LOVE lemon!) or maybe even grate a little lemon peel into it. I made a powdered sugar icing with more lemon juice to drizzle on top. The family really liked this one and I'm definitely going to make it again.
