Heartfelt thanks for being inducted into the Hall of Fame♡ This is a refreshing and delicious cake with the lovely name “a yellow jewel cake to enjoy with someone special on the weekend.”

The origin of this recipe
I wanted to eat a cake made with delicious lemons, so I referred to many books and recipes and arrived at this combination.
The outside is crispy, and the inside is tender. It's a refreshing and addictive taste♪

Steps

  1. 1

    Mix the butter, softened to room temperature, until it becomes pale. (If using straight from the fridge, microwave the butter for about 30 seconds.)

  2. 2

    Add the sugar to the well-mixed butter and mix thoroughly until fluffy. (You can use a hand mixer.) The key is to mix well!

  3. 3

    Gradually add the beaten eggs, mixing well each time. The mixture will become quite fluffy when the eggs are added.

  4. 4

    Wash the lemon well and grate the zest. Add the grated zest and lemon juice to the mixture from step 3 and mix well again.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into a loaf pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 35-40 minutes, checking occasionally. It's done when a skewer comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Remove from the pan immediately after baking and let it cool.

  8. 8

    Add lemon juice to the powdered sugar, then add half of the water and mix well. Adjust the consistency by adding more water until it becomes syrupy, as shown in the picture.
