Magic Lemon Cake

Magic Lemon CakeThis Magic Lemon Cake is very famous on the Internet, what it is fun about it is a single batter, but during baking, it separated into 2 parts: a pudding one on top and down a very soft sponge. I recommend it. Be aware that the temperature of the ingredients is very important for the final result. And do not overcook it.
