Lemon Drizzle Cake

Enjoy your delicious raspberry cheesecake brownies, a perfect blend of rich chocolate and tangy raspberry flavors!

Ingredients

For the Cake

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar

  • 4 large eggs

  • Zest of 2 lemons

  • 1½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt


For the Lemon Drizzle

  • Juice of 2 lemons

  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar



Instructions

Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.


Cream Butter and Sugar, then add Eggs and Lemon Zest

In a large bowl, beat the butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the lemon zest.


Combine Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.


Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.


Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean


Make Lemon Drizzle and Finish the Cake

While the cake is baking, mix lemon juice with ½ cup sugar to make the drizzle. As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, prick it all over with a skewer or fork and spoon over the lemon drizzle. The juice will sink in and the sugar will form a lovely, crisp topping.


Cool and Serve

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve the lemon drizzle cake once it's completely cooled.

Enjoy your zesty and refreshing lemon drizzle cake, perfect with a cup of tea!
