🔔 INSTRUCTIONS: 

STEP 1: PREPARE THE CAKE

- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. 

- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract and lemon zest.

- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk and lemon juice. Mix until just combined.

STEP 2: BAKE THE CAKE

- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

STEP 3: MAKE THE DRIZZLE

- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more lemon juice or powdered sugar as needed.

STEP 4: DRIZZLE AND SERVE

- Once the cake has cooled completely, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.

- Slice and serve your delicious lemon cake with drizzle, perfect for any occasion!
