"This is a dessert that has been in the family for years ... my grand mother use to make this all the time. It is very simple to prepare; and, I especially love it because it ISN'T too sweet. The lemon gives it a nice tartness, but the eggs give it a rich flavor."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Batter ... Beat the egg yolks until lightly a fluffy, and a light lemony color; then slowly add in the lemon juice, zest and milk. Mix well, then add the sugar, flour and salt. Make sure the batter is well mixed.
Step 2
Egg Whites ... Beat the egg whites until stiff, then gently fold into the batter.
Step 3
Bake ... Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter or grease (don't use oil) a 1 quart casserole dish. Add the batter to the casserole dish, then add the casserole dish to a larger pan and fill with approximately 1/2" of water. The water bath will help to steam and help to add moisture as the cake cooks. Cook 30-35 minutes on the middle shelf.
Step 4
Serve the cake warm and top with fresh whipped cream and a sprig of mint. ENJOY!
