My thoughts:

I was actually excited to come across Meyer lemons at Aldi** recently. Not solely were they pretty cheap, they tin dismiss endure tricky to abide by hither inward the mid-Atlantic. It is idea they may endure the termination of a spontaneous cross betwixt a lemon too a Mandarin orangish which makes feel to me, they own got the brightness of a lemon but are sweeter too to a greater extent than mellow similar an orange.

I similar using them inward baked goods because they own got that sweet-tart character I similar inward a fruity dessert. Here they season the cake too the glaze too instruct a piddling flake of help from the candied lemon peel, since citrus flavors tend to fade during the baking process. It is a pretty evidently cake thence you lot don't wish to skip on the lemon flavor!

This cake is super quick to seat together because it uses stone oil instead of butter thence you lot tin dismiss (as I did) determine to brand a cake too own got it inward the oven inward less than 10 minutes. It takes a piece to bake too cool but the mixing business office couldn't endure faster or simpler.

The cake is thence good! Light soundless moist at the same time.
