This cake is right from the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook. ย And it is fabulous. ย And oh-so-summery!
For the frosting I just threw together some confectioners sugar, some of my leftover zest, and milk. I know I liked the final result!
Throw some fresh blueberries on top and call it a day.ย ๐
My favorite Summer dessert is… Cobbler with ice cream!
My favorite summer dessert is lemon meringue pie. It always tastes so much better in the summer than any other time of year!
Cake, ice cream, pie- doesn’t matter! I will eat pretty much any and all desserts! All summer long!
My favorite summer time is when the sun goes down and everything looks orangly…
I love anything with Lemons..the fresh smell of lemons is divine!
Hands down, strawberry shortcake!
