This cake is right from the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook. ย And it is fabulous. ย And oh-so-summery!
For the frosting I just threw together some confectioners sugar, some of my leftover zest, and milk. I know I liked the final result!
Throw some fresh blueberries on top and call it a day.ย ๐
