Instructions
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas
Line the base and sides of a 20cm square tin with baking parchment (the easiest way is to cross 2 x 20cm strips over the base). Beat the butter, caster sugar, flour, almonds, baking powder, eggs, vanilla and the lemon zest and juice from lemon with an electric whisk until smooth.
Scrape into the tin and bake for 25-30 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean.
Turn out onto a wire rack, trim edges and slice into 16 squares. Tip the granulated sugar onto a plate.
Pour remaining lemon juice into another shallow dish. Very, very quickly, dip all sides of the cake squares, one-by-one, into the juice, then quickly in the sugar. Sit on a wire rack to set and crisp.
