LEMON-BLUEBERRY CAKE

LEMON MELTAWAYS

Lemon meltaways are the perfect cookie dessert for the new weather. Although these cookies are light, they are highly rich in butter.

The lemon adds a spark to the cookie and gives it a cool freshness. To finish this up, roll the dough, flatten it into discs, and bake until they are quite golden at the edges.

WARM LEMON PUDDING CAKES

These cakes are refreshing and hold a lot of surprise for those who crave them. The cooking time will be about the same. To make these, spray six ramekins with nonstick cooking spray.

Then make the batter by whisking the egg yolks, milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, melted butter, and salt in a bowl. Then add flour and sugar and whisk until it becomes smooth. Mix your beaten eggs to lemon to lighten it.

Put the already prepared ramekins into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Put the baking pan in the oven for about 45 minutes, or until the cakes are puffy and lightly golden on top.

Cut angel food cake into small, bite-sized pieces and keep it aside. In another container, add about 8 oz of whipped topping with lemon curd, and mix thoroughly.

Put the cake mix first in a large bowl or trifle dish. Next, add the pudding mixture, the sliced strawberries, and the lemon curd mixture.
