Recipe's preparation

    Lemon cake

  1. Grease 22 cm cake tin and line base with baking paper.  Preheat oven to 170 degrees C

    Place sugar and lemon rind in TM bowl and process for 20 seconds on speed 9

    Add the butter and cream together for 20 seconds on speed 5.

    Scrape down the sides and set blades going on speed 5 and add eggs one at a time through the hole in the lid.  This will take about one minute.

    Add the flour, baking powder and lemon juice and mix for 10 seconds on speed 5.  If not quite incorporated scrape down and turn quickly up to speed 6 for a second.

    Pour into prepared cake tin and bake for 1 hour until a skewer inserted, comes out clean.  Check after 40 minutes and cover with tin foil to stop browning. Allow to cool in tin for 10 minutes

    2. Crunchy Topping

  2. Make crunchy topping by placing sugar and juice in bowl and literally mixing for 1 second on speed 4. (do not dissolve the sugar)

    Remove cake from tin and pour over the crunchy topping.  The juice will sink into the cake and the sugar will form a crunchy topping.  Allow to cool before serving

    This was sensational. I added extra peel & juice by accident and it was perfect taste. Took it to work whilst still warm - it was a real hit! Thank you so much tmrc_emoticons.-)
