I CAN cook! So can Sandra Lee. I've tried several recipes of hers with great success. Not every meal is, can or should be Cordon Bleu and Sandra Lee's MO isn't to pretend that somehow her recipes are. Her recipes are about making the best and the most with what you already have or can afford and do it in a reasonable amount of time. While I am not in a financial pinch the way the majority of our country seems to be in, I can still appreciate the simplicity and taste in her recipes. As for this one it was something that even a Cordon Bleu graduate would taste at a pot luck and no doubt have seconds. Keep it up Sandra!!!

Seriously Glutton again SEMI HOME-MADE! This recipe is for someone who is in a big hurry and doesn't want to run into the grocery store bakery. It's yummy and creative. I had a little more time on my hands and prepared this cake with a lemon cake mix and made up my own cream cheese frosting but followed the rest of the recipe to the letter, including the lemonade concentrate (umm again hello you that balk at this and suggest people who like her show can't cook...lemonade concentrate is a lemon simple syrup. Can be made from scratch with 1 part fresh lemon juice to 1 part sugar but the concentrate is a whole lot easier for people who are IN A HURRY. Yummy!
