Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for baking dish
3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus more for baking dish
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

  • Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat 4 tablespoons butter and 3/4 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl until well combined, about 4 minutes. Add egg yolks 1 at a time, beating to blend between additions and scraping down sides of bowl as needed.
  • Reduce mixer speed to low and, with motor running, add reserved buttermilk mixture in 3 additions, alternating with flour in 2 additions, beginning and ending with buttermilk mixture (batter will be extremely loose).
  • Using an electric mixer with clean, dry beaters, beat egg whites and salt on high speed in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites into pudding cake batter in 3 additions, just barely blending after each addition.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon unsalted butter, for the baking cups
5 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Whipped cream, for garnishing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Using the teaspoon of butter, butter six 2-ounce baking cups or one 12-ounce (8 x 10-inch) oval baking dish. Place the cups or dish in a roasting pan. Bring a tea kettle or medium pot of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. In another clean bowl, beat the egg yolks until frothy and light in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Slowly add the sugar to the yolks while still beating. Mix in the lemon zest and juice.
  • Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk-lemon mixture. Pour the batter into each souffle cup (filling each three-quarters full) or the baking dish. Put the roasting pan on the oven rack with the oven door open. Carefully and quickly pour the boiling water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking cups or dish. Slide the pan into the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Don't overcook.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Set the cups or dish on a wire rack to cool. To serve, set the cups on serving plates or scoop from the baking dish into individual dishes. Dust with confectioners' sugar, then top with a dollop of whipped cream.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, plus more, for the ramekins
3/4 cup sugar, plus more, for the ramekins
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 4 lemons), plus 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
4 large eggs, separated
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
Pinch of cream of tartar, optional
Raspberry sorbet, optional

Steps:

  • Lightly brush four 8-ounce ramekins with butter, then dust each with sugar. (This can be done up to 2 hours ahead.)
  • Melt the butter in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat, then cool to warm. Whisk in the sugar and lemon juice and zest until the sugar is dissolved. Whisk in the egg yolks. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and an instant-read thermometer registers 175 degrees F, about 10 minutes. Do not boil. Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the flour until smooth. Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar if using in a large, clean nonreactive bowl. Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they hold soft peaks. Fold a quarter of the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture to lighten. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
  • Divide the souffle mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins. Place the filled ramekins in a roasting pan. Carefully fill the pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake the souffles until golden brown on top, 12 to 14 minutes. Using tongs as an aid, carefully remove the hot souffles from the water to a plate.
  • If desired, make a small indentation in the center of each souffle and place a small scoop of raspberry sorbet in the indentations. Serve the souffles immediately.

LEMON PUDDING CAKE



Lemon Pudding Cake image

A moist lemon cake sits atop a delicate custard in this recipe, adapted from Ian Knauer's book "The Farm." The magic is in the cooking: Setting a 8-inch baking dish in a roasting pan filled halfway with water allows the custard to form while the top bakes. It's an excellent party dish, warm and just out of the oven. But it's equally as good out of the fridge, its flavors melded and mellowed.
