My Open Letter
Dear Liliana,
How did you know? How did you know that this cake is my soulmate? I love this cake! I want to try it on a plane, in a train, and with orange zest, strawberries and mint, and with some lime.
Thanks for a great pick. - Mary the Food Librarian
I made mine with Greek yogurt from Trader Joe's and baked it in a 9" cake pan.
I split the layer and layered lemon curd in the middle.
I just topped it with powdered sugar...Dorie uses lemon marmalade and that sounds delicious too!

I think this is my favorite Dorie so far...well, one of them! Your layer cake presentation is beautiful. Since I know I'll be making this again and again, it's great to know that it's so versatile.
Yum: lemon curd in the middle, the cake must taste great that way!!
Oh that is an absolutely gorgeous presentation! I LOVED this cake, it smelled so good while cooking and tasted wonderful :) I paired it with simple lemon curd. YUM!
My mouth is watering right now! Lemon anything is my favorite right now - yum!
cake=soulmate LOL! Wasn't this recipe the best? I love your presentation with the curd and powdered sugar.
I love powdered sugar for cakes. Some times the simplest things are the best, aren't they? The cake looks beautiful and elegant.
Glad you loved it Mary! It looks gorgeous.
Beautiful cake. I love the berries with it! Job well done!

What a coincidence! I just tried this recipe the other day. My niece and nephew loved it! I also did without the marmalade glaze. The cake is already sweet without it. This recipe is definitely a keeper. Your photo is making me want a slice!
It's so, so pretty!!!
Simply stunning!
Fantastic!!! Simple yet elegant.
LOL, so you're in love? Your cake does look like a beauty. Love the chopped bits of strawberries!

Beautiful photos!! Love the strawberries on top!
Now I really want strawberries. And lemon curd. Your cake is lovely with the powdered sugar on it.
Wow, your cake looks divine! How did you slice your cake into such perfect layers?? I can never get mine so even. That lemon curd makes for a divine filling. So delicious!
I'm turning to that page in the book right now! If I have all the ingredients, it is SO on! :D
Oh, gorgeous as always, Mary :) I love the elegant simplicity of it.
I recently made two jars of lemon curd. I think I'll try this and the triple layer lemon chiffon as well. Thanks for the inspiration!
