Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (160°C) and preparing mini cake trays by lightly coating them with baking spray.
- Whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon of baking soda until well combined.
- Cream ½ cup of softened unsalted butter with ¾ cup of granulated sugar and ¼ cup of light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the zest of one lemon and mix well, then incorporate 2 large eggs, one at a time.
- Combine ½ cup of sour cream, ¼ cup of whole milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a separate bowl.
- Gradually incorporate your dry flour mixture into the butter mix, alternating with the wet mixture.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared mini cake trays, and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Prepare the lavender glaze by heating ¼ cup of milk and steeping 1 tablespoon of culinary lavender for 10 minutes.
- Combine 1 cup of powdered sugar, a pinch of salt, and ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract, adding the infused milk until pourable.
- Drizzle the lavender glaze generously over each cooled cake and garnish with additional lemon zest and edible flowers.
