When Life Hands You Lemons....

Don't make lemonade. Make lemon cake!!

This is very much a family favourite in our house, and very simple to make, so here goes.

I use one and a half times my standard cupcake mix, so as follows.

225g Caster Sugar

225g Margarine

260g Self Raising Flour

5 Eggs

1 Large Lemon - Juice

1 tsp Bicarbonate Soda

All the ingredients in one bowl and mix.

Then distribute evenly between two cake pans.

Then cook at gas mark 4 for 45 minutes, remove and allow to cool.

Then to decorate -

Butter Icing to fill - 1tsp Lemon Juice to give it a kick.

Lemon Icing to top, Juice of one Lemon, I added a dash of yellow food colouring.

Then Enjoy!!

Happy Baking
