    List of Ingredients




    Cake:
    3/4 cup sugar
    2 lemons, grate both and set aside
    8 Tablespoons sweet unsalted butter, softened
    2 eggs, beaten
    3/4 cup flour
    pinch of salt
    6 Tablespoons milk, room temperature.
    3 Tablespoons sugar

    Recipe



    Cake: Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs a little at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in grated lemon rinds, flour and salt. Beat thoroughly, add the milk and beat again. Pour into 8 inch greased and floured loaf pan and bake about one hour in a 325-degree oven. The cake should spring back when pressed gently in center. Remove from oven and immediately prick the top with a thin skewer and pour lemon topping over until completely covered. Cool in pan.

    Topping: Combine lemon juice and sugar in a small bowl and set in a warm place until sugar dissolves.
