LEMON SPONGE CAKE
I found this in an old Nebraska 4-H cookbook the other day. It's wonderfully moist! I would suggest to maybe put a little more lemon juice than suggested (I LOVE lemon!) or maybe even grate a little lemon peel into it. I made a powdered sugar icing with more lemon juice to drizzle on top. The family really liked this one and I'm definitely going to make it again.

Steps:
- Squeeze out the juice of the lemon and get the zest. Set aside. Prepare the cake pans by rubbing with butter then lining with parchment/baking paper. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and set aside. Preheat the oven at a temperature of 150C (fan) or 170C (Conventional oven).
- In a mixing bowl, add the softened butter and sugar. Use an electric mixer to mix till it turns pale (light in color) and is fluffy. This is called the creaming process.
- Break the eggs one at a time into the creamed butter/sugar mix and beat with the mixer till it comes together.Add the lemon juice and zest and whisk till it's combined.
- Add flour/baking powder mix to the batter and use a spatula to mix. When it's come together, use the mixer to mix till smooth (This takes about 30 seconds. Do not overmix).
- Divide the cake batter equally into the two prepared cake pans. Put the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or till a cake tester when inserted comes out clean.
- Bring out the cakes and leave them in the pan for 5 minutes before turning onto a cake rack to cool.
- When cakes are completely cooled, you can then fill and cover with frosting.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3. Butter a deep, loose-bottomed, 18cm cake tin and line the base with baking parchment.
- Beat the butter and caster sugar together with an electric whisk until fluffy and pale in colour. Crack the eggs in one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the lemon zest. Fold in the flour, baking powder and ½ tsp salt, then fold in the yogurt.
- Spoon the mixture into the lined tin, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the centre of the oven for 50-55 mins, or until golden brown on top and firm to the touch. Cool in the tin for 10 mins before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight container for up to four days, or in the freezer for up to a month.
- When you're ready to decorate, sieve the icing sugar into a bowl and beat in enough of the lemon juice to create a thick icing. Set the cake on a serving plate or cake stand, then spoon over the icing, allowing it to drip down the sides a little. Top with the lemon zest or candied peel, if using (see below), and cut into generous wedges to serve.
- To make candied lemon peel, peel large, wide strips from the lemons using a vegetable peeler. Remove any pith with a knife, then julienne the peel into very thin matchsticks. Tip the granulated sugar into a saucepan with 200ml water and set over a medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add the lemon peel and simmer gently for 15 mins, then scoop the peel out using a slotted spoon and set on a piece of kitchen paper to cool. Use to decorate the top of your cake.
