Today 12 SPOON LEMON CAKE, soft and genuine, a simple and light recipe like a cloud. It is a cake that is made without using scales, because the main ingredients are measured using a simple spoon. You will need 12 spoons of flour, sugar, oil, lemon juice, and a packet of baking powder. If you love these types of practical recipes, I also recommend the apple ring cake without scales, or the 7 jars chocolate cake.
