Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
• Mix in the plain yogurt, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
• Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
• Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the lemon icing over the top.
• Allow the icing to set before serving.

Tips
