Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 cup whole milk, 2 tbsp lemon zest, and 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice until well combined.

  4. Step 4: Pour the batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.

  7. Step 7: Spread the cream cheese glaze evenly over the cooled cake and slice to serve.
