Lemon Cream Sandwich Cake
I like the texture of this cake ,it's soooo soft, (probably because I beat the eggs and sugar over the warm water??!!)
But the lemon cream,not my favourite, tooo sour for me...lol. I should add more sugar into the lemon cream, or reduce the lemon juice.
Because of the texture of this cake, I'll put this cake in my waiting list again, and try it with another version of lemon cream.
Here's the recipe from dailydelicious .
Ingredients:
For cake:
90 gm melted butter
2 eggs (about 100 gm)
