Bake for 45 minutes until done. Check doneness with the toothpick test (see Notes).

Step 7

Remove from the oven to a cooling rack and allow cooling.

Add the powdered sugar and lemon juice to make the icing. Add the lemon juice slowly until you get the consistency you want. Drizzle the icing over the cake.
