Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Prepare the cake batter: In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Make the glaze: While the cake is baking, combine the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Stir until smooth.
Glaze the cake: Once the cake has cooled completely, drizzle the glaze over the top, allowing it to soak into the cake.
