Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare your mini cake trays by lightly coating them with baking spray.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, kosher salt, and baking soda.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and grated lemon zest until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the batter is smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together sour cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract until well blended.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the wet mixture until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among the mini cake trays and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the mini cakes cool in their trays for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for about 1 hour.
- In a small saucepan, heat milk until warm; steep the lavender for about 10 minutes, strain, then mix with powdered sugar until smooth.
- Once cooled, drizzle the lavender glaze over each cake and garnish with lemon zest and edible flowers if desired.
