Easy recipe for a great dessert

Despite the fact that I had no electric mixer, I still managed to pull off a great dessert that everyone liked. One thing I found is that it is a bit difficult to cut the brown off the sides and bottom of the cake as it created more crumbs and left little of the cake intact.

This cake is listed in your sugar free recipes and there is about 3 cups of sugar in this recipe. I don't consider that sugar free.




Great, especially for ladies lunch

This is easier then it sounds. It takes time, but it's not too difficult. It really is impressive. I took it to a Yacht Club event and everyone loved it.

This recipe wasn't what I expected. I think that it needs more sugar. The kids don't really like them. Just wouldn't be my first choice and I won't make them again. I didn't know what confit was, it still has the aftertaste of the peel. It looks pretty though. This recipe took far longer than I expected, just over 2 hours from start to finish and including the clean up. It has a lot of steps, since I wasn't going to memorize it, I took it one thing at a time as the recipe showed to do things. I wish it would have said to zest the lemon first. I started as it stated to peel first and then had to use another lemon to zest for the cake itself. If you really love lemon, it may be worth the time. Otherwise, I'd try something different.
