One of my favorite desserts! This Lemon Pudding Cake is a hit every time I bake it. It has a perfect sponge texture and a nice gooey sauce at the bottom which is super delish! My mom loves this so much she can eat the whole thing! It is so good and pretty easy to make. I think this is by far the best Lemon Pudding Cake I’ve ever tasted. And to make it more lemony you can add more lemon zest and fresh lemon juice. Don’t worry about adding more lemon zest or juice in it because the intense lemon flavor of this cake is just perfect! I suggest letting it cool first before serving but if you want a bite after it’s a bake that’s fine, either way, this cake is delicious. Then, sprinkle the top with powdered sugar, slice, and serve.
I’m baking this again today as a gift to my Mom. Happy Mother’s Day Mom!
