lemon drizzle cake

         yeah!! my first ever blog post so let's  make it  sweet by this lemon drizzle cake.
 Being an absolute chocolate lover I never really preferred any other favoured desserts
                            but only until I tried this delicious lemon drizzle cake.
 May be one of the reason for loving this cake so much is that I really enjoy critic favours as well.
         But whatever the reason is this cake is truly  to die for And super simple and easy to do....

INGREDIENTS:-

FOR CAKE YOU WILL NEED..... 

1\4 CUP BUTTER
1\2 CUP SUGAR
1\2 CUP ALL PURPOSE  FLOUR
1\4 TSP BAKING POWDER
1\8 TSP BAKING SODA 
1 LARGE SIZE LEMON 
1\4 TSP VANILLA EXTRACT 
1 EGG 

FOR DRIZZLE YOU WILL NEED....

JUICE OF HALF LEMON
1\4 CUP ICING SUGAR 

METHOD:-

1.  firstly measure all your ingredients correctly. as getting right measurements are very essential in any kind of baking & I HAVE DONE THAT:)

2.   to get started in a  large bowl  mix your butter and sugar together till creamy .followed by an egg mixing until all nice and well combine.now add in your vanilla , zest of a whole lemon (make sure you get only the yellow part from the lemon and not the white part as it will make your cake taste bitter.)and juice of half lemon and mix it again.


3.  lastly add in your flour,baking powder,baking soda and fold in together .never over mix your flour in to the batter just only till its combine .

4.   now its time to pre-heat your oven at 180*c and grease your cake pan with oil very well and pour in your batter (i have used a disposable paper loaf pan ) .then bake your cake for 25 minute .

5.  so now as the cake is baking its time to  prepare your drizzle by combining your lemon juice from reaming  half  lemon and icing sugar .( as simply as that)

6.  as soon as your cake comes out of the oven prick it with tooth pick and pour the  drizzle on top. letting the drizzle sip in to the cake .

7.  after 10-15 minutes de-mould your cake and let it cool down completely .....

8.  ready to dig in yummm....super moist goodness
