My husband Kyle was very sweet and made this for me while I was trying to get other things done to study for my final. He said it was pretty easy, but the longest part was getting everything to room temperature. That was especially true for our cream, which was frozen. We used only two lemons because we thought three might be too much, but next time I'd use the full three. Also, we used AP flour, but I think it would be better with the intended cake flour. It was still pretty good. I'd consider it more of a breakfast food than dessert, but that's just because I love sugar too much.
To see the recipe look here or here.
What a nice guy! We weren't wowed by this either, but I am with you, I love sugar!
ReplyDeleteHow lucky that your husband made this for you!!!
ReplyDeleteYour husband is so sweet!! I didn't do any of the room temperature directions..never do:)
ReplyDeleteI never thought of it as a breakfast food until I read your blog. I think you are right. And I saw another post where someone put apricot marmalade on it and it was delicious. I really think that is the way to go, because it really does not have enough punch to be a dessert.
ReplyDeleteThat's great that your husband got in on the act. The loaf turned out beautifully. Hope your final went well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet guy! My husband is a wonderful chef but not a baker at all. I did use cake flour - the loaf was light, but still a bit dry.
ReplyDeleteAwww - how nice that you had extra help. I hope your studying went well & you were successful with your test...
ReplyDeleteYour loaf looks great! I agree it's definitely a yummy breakfast treat! Good luck with your finals!
