Lemon Butter Cake with Poppy Seeds

Assalamualaikum,..


dan hai!


I couldn't believe it for myself as I can do this cake for ad-hoc without referring any recipes! yeay, kudos to me! haha..

Feeling so much like Anna Olson, yeah just for last night only, with the only basic think you should have for a butter cake, cake flour, sugar, butter and eggs. As simple as that you will have a moist butter cake.

But, I'd just remember when I passing one bakery sections in the supermarket that they have instant premix lemon with poppy seeds butter cake. Maybe I could add in some poppy seeds for 'pop' tasted when you are eating.

That's all the ideas came into my head last night and was determined enough to bake it one. haha. Afterall when it's up to me, I do mild taste of lemon, not so tangy at all!

P.s my first taste about this cake was amazing as the textures are extremely soft and so moist. Plus I don't need any buttermilk, sour cream or yogurt for this recipe cause it turns so well and taste so good! Owh I don't compliment myself, but my taste sense already evolve who actually praising a recipe that had lemon inside. I'd just don't believe myself for liking tangy taste!
