Reviews

While the lemon flavor was good, I just had so much trouble getting this to bake well. It kept rising too much over the pan edges and would not cook evenly. I also though it also had more of a sugar cookie texture to it than a cake. Not sure if I did something wrong in my math dividing the recipe in half. Fortunately, I got a couple to work well enough to frost.
