A beautiful and easy cake but the baking powder leaves a lingering taste. I'd use 1.5tsp in the future or even just 1 and mix by hand

I use 1.5t of baking powder and it's still quite fluffy. I've not tried it with the full amount because I'm a bit scared departing too far from the ratio of 1t :1c baking powder to flour. I also prefer a denser cake.I make this as a double to make a 2 layer cake (with lemon & cream cheese icing). Very well received.
Preheat oven to 180ºC bake. Grease and line an 18cm square baking tin.
Place all cake ingredients together in a food processor, in the order listed above, and process for 15 seconds.
Pour mixture into prepared tin and bake for 20-25 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
For topping - mix the lemon juice, Chelsea White Sugar and boiling water together to form a runny syrup. Spoon topping onto cake while hot. Leave to cool in tin.
NOTE: This recipe can also be made with electric hand mixers. Place all cake ingredients in a bowl in the stated order and mix until combined.
