- In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4️⃣ Add Lemon Flavor
- Stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. The batter may look slightly curdled—this is normal.

- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
7️⃣ Prepare the Lemon Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
- Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top. For extra zing, sprinkle lemon zest on top.
8️⃣ Serve and Enjoy!
- Slice and serve. Pair with whipped cream or fresh berries for an added touch.
