I have made several attempts at cooking Lemon Cake in my rice cooker. I have some Lemon Cake recipes and I used them. I realised that the cake cooked in ricer cooker tends to collapse when flipped over if Butter content is high. Soft and moist ones don’t work well. It seems the basic rice …
I hesitate to call this dessert a ‘Pie’ as it has no pastry, but it is called so. Absolutely easy and ‘Impossible’ to go wrong. There are many slightly different recipes and you might have your own. This is my recipe that is just right for my 22.5cm Pyrex pie dish. Some people use Coconut …
