Hi Friends!
This is crazy. Day 2 of returning to school, my nose is runny already -.- It was -30 C this morning. Crazy.
Normally I would wait until my boy is inside the school, but not this morning, made me feel guilty, but even when the car was warmed for 45 minutes-long, it was still cold for us to be in the car, so I dropped him off at school, saw him walking into the playground area, and I drove away. Guilty feeling still lingering even right at this moment. Sorry babe!
Driving has been nuts too. The road is just too bumpy from hardened snow that the snow-removal people did not get to it on time, sooooo, it’s almost like we were on a rocking-boat on the sea, while driving. Scary, I tell ya! Not to mention, why the F they would place those snow by the sides of the intersections. With mountain high of snow, who the F can see coming cars, from left and right. For a town that is always has crazy Winter and piles of snow, this is a major occurrence, every time, no matter how the citizen protested previous Winters. Wowzer.
Enough about the my craziness lol Today I would so love to share this awesome cake of mine, as am missing Summer! – well, no, not really, I do not like Summer heat lol, I like warm sun and not having to drive on the shitty road. Whatever, I ramble too much. lol
The idea for this cake came from a Hungarian recipe, which of course heavy on eggs and dairy. It took me almost a full day, doodling on my book, trying to sub this, sub that, what to tweak so I know I would not fail and end result would be awesome. In the end I just came up with my own version, as always. lol
Happy to say, give the recipe a try, you would not be disappointed. Moist cake with creamy filling that is just lemony awesome 🙂
Here is the recipe and check the video for detailed steps! – and oh, you will need to make 3 layers, so if it’s round pan, use either 6 ir 7 inch, if rectangular with 3 mold in one, mine was 9.5 x 9.5 inch (see vid).

Hai Teman!
Mau ngomel-ngomel dikit ah wkwkwkw
Baru juga 2 hari balik sekolah, hidung dah mulai meler dan mampet, payah bener. Tapi gimana ga payah. 2 minggu libur, cuaca oke-oke aja, eeeeh balik sekolah, temperatur anjlok ke -30 selsius. Dingin bo. Mana kan kita ga punya garasi tuh yah, jadi mobil di luar pastinya tertutup es. Jadi kudu bersih-bersih es dari jendela. Kitanya terekpos sama dingin cuaca deh. Padahal dah jaket tebal-tebal, dan segala atribut dipakai, tetep aja dingin bo.
Kalau musim Dingin gini nih, karena mobil kudu dipanaskan terlebih dahulu, dengan sukses setiap orang pasti bangkrut hahahha Bahan bakar terpakai 2-3 kali lipat hanya untuk menghangatkan mobil, euy.
Belum lagi karena salju kalau sudah turun bisa bertubi-tubi, pekerja sewaan pemerintah untuk membersihkan salju dijalan tuh sering memakan waktu lama bener. Nah salju yang selalu kena ban mobil, lama-lama mengeras dan tidak terlalu bisa dibersihkan dari jalanan. Dengan kata lain, para pengguna jalan tuh kalau nyetir jadi terombang-ambing, seolah-olah diatas kapal, ketimbang nyetir mobil, haiyaaah. Bahaya banget :-/ Suka sutris nyetir di musim Dingin hahahaha
Ngomong-ngomong, hari ini aku mau berbagi resep untuk kue berikut ini, yaitu kue bolu rasa jeruk lemon
Kue ini enak banget (karena aku yang buat wkwkwk)
Bolunya lembut dan krimnya ga terlalu manis (namun tentunya teman boleh buat lebih manis kalau suka lebih manis yak), cocok banget deh buat pengantar minum teh 🙂

Instructions
Cake
- Mix and pour into baking pan (I have this nice baking mold, where it has 3 mold in one, so I used it, but you can use any other mold, but then you will have to slice the cake into 3 layers). Bake at preheated 400 f 10 mins, lower to 300 f 10 mins, convection oven Cool on rack
Cream 1
- Boil to thicken, stirring continuously
- Cool to room tempt, 30 mins, stirring every 10 mins
Cream 2
- Beat icing sugar and margarine
- Beat in Cream 1, chill for 30 mins
- Take out cream from fridge, stir in almond flour
Assembling
- Spread cream on 1 cake evenly, then top with vegan friendly digestive biscuits
- Top with more cream, covering the biscuits
- Stack another cake, repeat the steps
- For the 3rd cake, mix 2 tbsp icing sugar, 1 tsp lemon juice and a drop of yellow food coloring, then spread evenly on the cake, let it firm up, then place as the top layer.
- Chill cake 2-3 H so flavor would develop, but I like it overnight, for more intense flavor
- Slice and serve
