Instructions

1. Grate the lemon rind and squeeze out the juice for the glaze. In a large bowl, cream butter with sugar. Add lemon extract and eggs, beating well after each egg.
2. Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in 1/2 cup at a time into the butter and egg mixture, alternating with the milk and lemon rind. Stir the dough thoroughly but only until it is well blended. Turn into a 9 x 5 loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
3. Remove from oven and spoon glaze over the top. Return to oven for 10 minutes.
4. Let cool and allow the glaze to harden before turning the loaf out onto a wire rack.
