My New Muffin - ut its really more like a cake!! YUM YUM!!

[Blonde Logic]

This week there were no peanut bard or now cranberry bars. I do not really care for the other three, but got a few to tide me over for when I felt like chewing something.

I decided to try and make a lemon 'cake' and can I just say - call me Dehlia!

If you like lemony citrusy flavours, and cream cheese frosting - try this!

Dissolve 2 sweetners and mix with 1 pack of Vanilla shake, 1/2 tsp St. Clements, and 1/2 chopped Lemon bar in warm water till it is smooth and creamy - make sure its not too dry. (Stir the bar in after you have mixed th batter, and chop the lemon bar in little squares - smallish)

Cook on high (800w) for 1 minute, 30 seconds. It actually rises like a cake!

While thats cooking mix 1/2 Vanilla pack, 1/4 tsp St. Clements and warm water to a creamy smooth consistancy

Turn the cake out on a rack and cool slighlty - it will be moist in the center and may split - just put together and while still warm spread the icing....and then, enjoy!

That was the best thing I have made yet - the lemon bar gives it a different consistancy then a muffin - it was full of air, it was light, and the edges were chewy, like pastry!! It was REALLY good!!!

Just wanted to share!

I have been on LL for 21 weeks now and have never ever tried any receipe's, i am soo scared that they won't come out the same and I would waste my packs.

 

[Blonde Logic]

[gazz]

can i have a blokes version with the correct amount of water etc. as I am a disaster at the muffins and everything else lately.

 

[Blonde Logic]

Hi Gazz

Be happy to work out a proper recipe for you, bbut I am afraid I can't do it until Thursday at the earlies as we are going to the inlaws tomorrow nite, and I'll just be having soup.

I usually just hold a little bowl under a slow tap, so I will have to do it using measuring spoons etc in order to be accurate, BUt I wll get to it, I promise!!

[gazz]

awww thanks !!

 

[Blonde Logic]

No worries Gazz! I am sorry I can't do it sooner....I would wager a guess to the amount of water so ou could do it tonight but I have no clue!!! So watch this space!!! And well doone on 33.3 pounds!!!


<walks away muttering under breath about how fast men lose weight.......>

 

[hels80]

Ooooh, I'm going to try this tonight...will let you all know how it turns out; it sounds gorgeous!

 

[Blonde Logic]

Hels - make that batter wetter then you do for a regular muffin....and if its not done enough, just keep cooking for 10 seconds and checkin...if you cook toooo long, the lemon bar bits can burn!!

Hope you like it as much as I did!!!
