Ingredients

For the cream:

  • 500 ml Milk
  • 2 Eggs
  • 4 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 6 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 80 g Cheese Mascarpone or Philadelphia
  • 1 Lemon

For the cake:

  • 1 Egg
  • 120 g Sugar
  • Lemon zest
  • 320 g Flour
  • 6 gr Baking powder
  • 140 g Butter

Instructions

  • Start the recipe by pouring milk into a pot. Add the eggs, cornstarch, and sugar. Mix it well before putting it on top of low heat. Continue stirring until it reaches a slightly sticky consistency.
  • Bring the pot out of the fire and this time, add the cheese. This recipe recommends using Mascarpone cheese for the best result.
  • After mixing in the cheese and stirring it well, now is the perfect time to add the fresh lemon juice squeezed out of one lemon. Continue to mix the combination until the juice is fully combined with the other ingredients. Set the mixture aside to prepare the crust.
  • The crust is just as important as the main cake,It needs to have a solid texture and not be too soggy because this will ruin the recipe. The key is to make sure that everything is properly combined and well-kneaded.
  • Get all the ingredients for the crust and put them one by one inside a bowl. Combine the egg, sugar, and lemon zest first before adding any dry ingredients to the mix.
  • Once the dough is ready, grab the baking pan and start to spread the dough on it. Using a fork, poke some holes in the dough so it will be baked evenly in the oven.
  • Put the main cake mixture on top of the crust.(You can also be creative and add your design on top of the cake by adding shaped crust dough on it to make it more attractive. In this tutorial, small scallops were cut from the crust dough and placed on the edges of the lemon cake to make it appealing).
  • It needs to be cooked at 180 degrees Celsius for 35 minutes. Once your lemon cake is baked to perfection, you can now sprinkle powdered sugar on it, and add lemon slices to make it look more appetizing. Serve it while it’s hot, and enjoy!
