Lemon Delicious

Lemon Delicious is a classic dessert and it is similar to my ‘Lemon Magic Cake’. It has layers of fluffy sponge and gooey lemon custard. Many recipes require a lot of Sugar. 1 cup OR even more Sugar for 4 servings is scary. I feel 2 tablespoons per serving would be the maximum. I understand more Sugar is needed when we use a lot of Lemon Juice. So, I decided to use 3 tablespoons per serving, that means the amount of Sugar for 4 servings is 3/4 cup. The result? This Lemon Delicious was absolutely sweet enough. And it is super easy to make if you use a baking dish.

Preheat oven to 160°C. Grease 1.5L capacity baking dish with Butter. *Note: The volume of the batter would be about 1L. You need a baking dish with a larger capacity.

Gradually fold in the whipped Egg Whites to the mixture.
