Mini Lemon Yogurt Cakes 迷你柠檬酸奶蛋糕

Since I had bought a huge bag of lemons recently, here is another easy to follow recipe with lemon fragrant and can be sent into the oven after a few minutes of mixing. These simple plain Mini Lemon Yogurt Cakes are not only cute in mini sizes, they’re tender and soft too. You can feel the crusty top with each bite especially when served warm. In fact the mini cake will go in 2 bites! Great to serve as tea cake at any time of the day.

These mini lemon yogurt cakes can be also baked in small cupcake liners if you don’t have the flower mould. 小蛋糕不用摸具也可以放入小纸杯烘烤。

Best to consume the small cakes within a day. The top of the cake will be a bit wet if kept till next day, so it's better to dust with some snow powder before storing in container.
