Moist Lemon Cake

I have tried many lemon cake recipes but mostly they turned out to be dry, but this cake is an exception, as the cake is incredibly moist and it doesn’t require any fancy ingredients to get the moist texture like cream cheese or cream. I have already made this cake a couple of times and it has turned out 100% perfect each time. The texture is consistent no matter how many times you try the same recipe, the result will always come out to be exactly the same. Follow the recipe- it is fairly simple and you would be in a good space.

What Ingredients Do You Need To Make This Moist Lemon Cake

  • Butter (Room temperature) – 1/2 cup

  • Lemon Zest ( Of 1 big lemon or 2 small)

  • Hand blender, get it here.
