Excellent quick and easy cake. I used the old thick skinned Meyer lemons which I think made a big difference very juicy and rinds are very zesty.

Works well putting it in all into a bowl and mixing it with a fork or whisk.Doubled my mix and juggled between bottled lemon juice and lemon flavoured essence.Lovely mix.

Method

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.
