4 tspns baking powder
1/2 tspn salt
1/2 cup of milk
1/2 juice of lemon
zest of 1 lemon
1 tspn vanilla

and lots of icing and sprinkles for your toddler to decorate with!

1. Preheat the oven to 180 C and grease a large 20" cake tin.

2. Mix together the eggs ans sugar.

3. Now beat in the oil

4. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and finally the milk. Beat until smooth and then mix the lemon juice, zest and vanilla.

5. Add into cake tin and cook for 40-50 mins. Use a toothpick in the middle of the cake to test if its cooked through, it should come out smooth.
