🍰'Magic Vanilla Cake'🍰

1. sounds so good. Now I want to bake one!!!

Very similar to my lemon pudding cake recipe, but it only has custard and sponge cake. It's baked with a pan of water under the actual baking dish. This one isn't, so I am wondering if that is why it gets 3 layers instead of 2.


If I make it in a 2 quart rectangular baking dish, it has a fairly thin layer of dense cake. If I make it in my souffle dish, it puffs up like a souffle!! Very light spongy cake and loverly custard.

My husband, daughter and her friends call it Lemon Thing; it has been a tradition in my family since I was in high school; the third generation is now learning to make it!!!
