***Recipe by Beth M.***
My kiddos love anything sour; however, Grilled Lemon Pound Cake with Lemon Sauce is anything but tart! The delicately mingled flavors are bursting with lemon in a sweet refreshing dessert! This was a recipe on a whim and my kids helped me put it all together, and of course… they jumped at the chance to taste test for me!
Tot Talks: This is pretty awesome! We could have this when we go visit grandma and grandpa. They would especially love it because lemons are something that you just can’t get in Ohio. Well, except at the store… so I guess they will have to buy them at the store to make the sauce; but what if they had their own lemon tree? That would be really cool. Then we could eat this all the time!
Tot #2 Talks: It’s good; do you think anyone made a Hello Kitty cake out of this cake? I would eat that one too!
