Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just blended.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to 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, lemon juice, and milk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
