2 tbsp. grated lemon peel
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. whipped butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray into medium mixing bowl. Sift together flour and baking powder; stir in lemon peel and set aside.

In large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter, eggs and butter. Using electric mixer, beat at medium speed until combined; increase speed to high and beat until mixture is light and fluffy and double in volume. Add flour mixture alternately with milk beating at low speed until batter is smooth. Transfer batter to prepared pan and bake for 50-55 minutes. Let cake cool in pan for 5 minutes; place on cake rack to cool completely.
