| Tasty Ginger Lemon Cake (Dairy-Free) |
This delicious cake is smothered in a lemon icing sugar topping, making it super yummy!
It's super easy to make and is also dairy free! Our son had a dairy intolerance which he outgrew in his teenage years. Being a baker, I learned to bake with no butter or milk. This dairy free cake was a staple in our house.
