Lemon Butter Cake

This Lemon Butter Cake is super soft, moist and velvety. The cake is not very sweet and goes well with the lemon sugar glaze. Perfect!😘

I made a 7.5 x 3.5 inch loaf tin and 4 inch round tin cakes with this recipe.  You can make one  8 inch round tin or 8 x 4.5 inch loaf tin cake.
