A real favorite!

2  3/4 cups sugar

1  1/4 cups margarine (250g)

2Tbsp lemon zest

5 eggs (M)

3cups all-purpose flour

1teas baking powder

1/4 teas salt

1cup milk

Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Alternately, add dry ingredients and milk. I use 3 small loaf pans, lined with waxed paper.  Bake at 325° (170°C) for 45 minutes. (one lrg loaf pan-70minutes)

Cool thoroughly, drizzle on lemon glaze. Let harden.

Lemon Glaze: 1  1/2 cups powdered sugar, 3-4 Tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1Tbsp lemon zest, to make a slightly thick mixture.
