I really can't remember whether I've joined the event Cook Like A Star before ... I think I had. Anyway I've promised myself I must join the MasterChef theme in September. As I've been very busy making mooncakes for the past two weeks and since there aren't many days left before end September, I quickly picked this recipe Lemon Delicious by Lily ~ Junior MasterChef. This cake pudding dessert is very easy to make and you'll immediately fall in love with it at the first bite. Yes, "love at first bite"! It was full of lemon fragrance, the top part tasted like a cake and below it was soft like custard. So refreshing and delicious when it was served warm. I even kept one in the fridge for my morning breakfast the next day. So yummy that I must say this is best dessert I've tried so far.
Lemon Delicious
- Ingredients:
65g (1/3 cup) Caster sugar (reduced to 50g)
40g Butter, melted
Zest of 2 lemon (I only used one large lemon)
40ml Lemon juice
2 Egg yolks, lightly beaten
100ml (3/4 cup) Fresh milk
2 Egg whites
Pure cream, whipped to soft peaks, to serve (I omitted this)

- Preheat oven to 180C. Lightly grease 4 ramekins (you can use a smaller ramekins)
- Place flour, sugar and lemon zest in a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Make a well in the centre and pour in lemon juice and melted butter. Stir to combine, add egg yolks and mix well. Stir in milk.
- In a separate clean small bowl of an electric mixer (I used my Kitchen Aid mixer), whisk egg whites until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter and divide mixture evenly between ramekins. Place ramekins in a large roasting dish (I used a square cake pan), filled with cold water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden.
- Good to serve warm.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Esther :)
DeletePleasantly sweet and tangy...a lovely dessert.
ReplyDeleteAnn, I also can't remember whether you have joined Cook like a star b4, hahaha but never mind, it is the lemon delicious that I'm here for! Lemon delicious is quite a popular recipe in Australia. Always see the magazine & newspaper wrote about lemon delicious & I have a newspaper cut out recipe which I have been keeping for years yet haven't taken any action! Yours look like light cheesecake to me, yum yum!
ReplyDeleteJessie, Someone just commented on my Almond coffee cake and I just realized this was the post for Cook Like A Star Event. So absent minded lol!
DeleteYes this dessert is quite light like a cheesecake.
O I saw Lily bake those on masterchef and I remember thinking I want one of those!! I love lemon but I am always afraid to go to the masterchef site in case I get a spoiler since we're always a little behind in seeing the show on tv here.
ReplyDeleteThis looks gorgeous and I am glad I can now get to enjoy it!
I am loving this recipe and your mouthwatering pictures. Wow, Ann this look amazing, so moist and yummy! I know I would enjoy this! Just pinned!
ReplyDeleteLooks so lovely and refreshing. Loved these little lemon devils:)
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, do you change the beater to the whisk type or you just use the normal one for beating cake? 1 more question - can I pour everything into the ramekins and bake say half an hour later? Will this affect the end result? See, Im asking questions again. Thanks for being so kind to answer all my questions
ReplyDeleteAi Li, always use the ballon whisk to whisk egg whites or beating sponge cake. For beating butter, use the k beater.
Deleteaiyo, please don't do that lah! Only bake when you got time, don't do half half OK!
Hi Ann, will use the balloon whisk. This is the 1st time in my life beating egg whites. I intend to surprise my family with this dessert tonite but I got to fetch my daughter back from school and bathe her when shes back so thought preparing it before fetching her then bake when I am bathing her. Anyway, will head your advice......thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, I baked these tonite!!!! They were really soft like creme brulee. The cake was fulled baked but then when I got to the bottom of the ramekin, there was still a lot of batter. I baked for 35mins and the top was already brown. So I covered with foil and baked it longer. Why is it so? Other than this issue, it is a very very soft and moist cake. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Ai Li, did you add more water to it when baking half way? Because water reduces when baking.
DeleteHi Ann, I didn't touch them once I put them into the oven. Also, I got 6 ramekins instead of 4. They are quite sour too. Don't know what happen?
ReplyDeleteAs oven varies, you need to monitor your oven. Next time add lemon juice to your taste. For this recipe I also reduced the sugar as some recipes added a lot of sugar in it.
