    @Sandy_123

    Here goes 

    6oz of butter
    6oz sugar 
    6oz self raising flour
    3 eggs beaten 
    Juice and rind of lemon 

    Mix sugar and butter together till soft and light in colour 

    Add 1 beaten egg at a time with 1 tablespoon flour and mix 

    Repeat with other 2 eggs and spoons flour 

    Mix in lemon juice and grated zest 

    Add remaining flour mix and put into greased lined cake tin or tins 

    Bake in pre heated oven at 180 for about 25 mins 

    Leave to cool a bit in tin 

    You can the make a lemon syrup put some water and sugar in pan and melt sugar then add lemon juice to your taste 

    Put some small holes in cake top and pour over syrup 

    Or make a lemon butter icing with butter   icing sugar and lemon juice 

    Happy baking
