Lemon drizzle cake

How to make Quick and Easy Lemon Drizzle Cake | Inspired by Mary Berry’s Recipe 

Measurements of ingredients used for this cake: 

🔸- 225g or (1 cup) of butter 

🔸- 225g or (1 cup + 2 Tbsp) of caster sugar 

🔸- 275g or (1.5 cups + 3 Tbsp) Self-raising flour 

🔸- 1 tsp Baking powder 

🔸- 4 Tbsp Milk 

🔸- 4 Large Eggs 

🔸- 1/4 cup of White chocolate chips   

🔸- Zest of 2 lemons 

Measurements of ingredients for the Glaze 

🔸- 1 cup of icing sugar (sieved) 

🔸- Juice of 1 lemon 

🔸- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract 

Optional * For decorating the cake: 

🔸- 9 Wafer Daisies 

🔸- 7 Mini wafer flowers 

🔸- About 2 Tbsp of White chocolate chips   

🔸- 1 tsp of Lemon zest 

Method 

* Preheat oven to 180C and prepare a 9” round baking pan with non-stick baking paper 

* Measure all the ingredients for the cake into a large bowl (Except the chocolate chips) 

* Beat with an electric mixer till well blended. 

* Fold in the white chocolate chips. 

* Pour the mixture into the pan. I added some of the mixture into 5 cup cake cases. 

* Bake in the oven for about 40 minutes. 

* While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon icing glaze. 

* Mix the sieved icing sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla together. You can keep adding the liquid in bits and stir it into a consistency you need. Add less liquid if you want it less runny.  You can replace some of the lemon juice with water if you want it less tangy. 

* When the cake is ready, pour the glaze generously over the cake. 

* Decorate the cake with the wafer daisies, mini flowers and chocolate chips. It is best to put in the wafers when the icing is wet. Spread some of the zest over the cake and leave to set for a few minutes. 

* Cut up some slices and Enjoy 😊
