Zest & juice 2 lemons
14 oz plain flour
14 oz sugar + 4tbsp to glaze
4 tsp baking powder
9 oz butter
2 eggs
4 egg yolks
8 fl oz buttermilk ( I just add lemon juice to reg milk to make amount needed)

Sift flour, baking powder & add sugar. Beat with butter for 5 mins til crumbly. Add eggs, yolks, zest & milk, mix well. Pour into 9 inch springform tin and bake at 160c for approx 1 hr 15 mins. For topping, mix lemon juice and sugar in bowl. When cake is done pierce all over with cake tester ( I use bamboo skewer) then pour lemon juice all over hot cake.

Just add about 2 tbsp of lemon juice to normal milk. Or, for a savoury recipe you can subsitute vinegar. :D

Sounds wonderful, but 'drizzling' with calories, yes, I would probably end up eating the whole cake to myself! :evil:

What's the 'other way' of making it, would it be calorie free per chance??? :wink:
