Servings

Traybake cake

  • 250 g butter softened
  • 250 g caster sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 Medium egg
  • 250 g self-raising flour
  • 3 Tablespoons milk
  • Zest of lemon plural

Topping

  • 200 g icing sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice fresh
  • 1-2 Tablespoons lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180℃ (160℃ for fan ovens) and line an 8x10-inch tin with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Whisk in the eggs, flour and milk, a little bit at a time, until you have a smooth cake batter. Then stir in the lemon zest.
  4. Transfer the batter to your lined tin and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Let the cake cool in the tin for around 10 minutes then flip it out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely.

Topping

  1. Mix the icing sugar and lemon juice together to make a smooth, thick icing. Spread it over the cooled cake and top with extra lemon zest.
  2. Let the cake sit out until the icing is firm then cut it into squares and enjoy!
