  • Grease two round molds with butter and dust with wheat flour, then divide the batter evenly between the molds.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for about 40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

For best flavor, use fresh lemons instead of bottled juice. Fresh juice provides a brighter, authentic taste.
Always grease and flour your molds to ensure the cakes release easily.
You can replace the lemon flavor cake mix with vanilla and add extra lemon zest for a different flavor.
This cake is great for various occasions like brunches or as a light dessert. Enjoy it chilled or at room temperature, paired with tea or coffee for an afternoon snack!
