        I used this recipe yesterday and we tried some today. So simple an inexpensive to make, tastes really light and lemony. (I used an 8" round tin.) Far superior to supermarket stodge.
        Thanks D Gregory

        Method

        2. Put all ingredients together into a bowl and mix thoroughly with wooden spoon for 3 mins.
        3. Put into tin and bake for approx. 45 mins. Or until skewer inserted comes out clean.

        5. Make syrup by mixing lemon juice and sugar.
        6. After removing cake, pierce all over with fine skewer and, whilst hot, pour over the syrup. Leave to cool.

        8. Can be drizzled with icing if required. Mix icing sugar with lemon juice and drizzle over randomly.
