Help! I shared this recipe a while ago and can't find my copy at home, but look at what happened to

I replied to it with the fixed version but here it is

Lemon Cake Pudding

If you are looking for some different way to use lemons - here is the fabulous recipe of Granny's:

¼ c. sifted flour
1 c. Sugar
¼ t. salt

1 ½ or 2 T grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
¼ c. lemon Juice (exact)
2 Egg yolks (well beaten)
1 c. milk

2 egg whites (beat until stiff, not dry)

Sift flour before measuring. Mix all of the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Beat egg yolks, with a whisk, until lemon yellow. Whisk in milk,
lemon zest and lemon juice and when well blended. Mix the milk, etc. into flour and mix until well blended. Fold in the beaten egg whites just until blended. Pour into buttered heat-proof bowl. Place bowl in pan of hot water in 350 F oven. Bake for ~30 minutes. Cake will rise to top of bowl with a brown top and will draw away from the sides of the bowl, slightly.
Cool. Can be served in shallow bowls with the extra "sauce" over the top.

Does not have to be cold.

A word about the name - its really more of a pudding than a cake. Very, very light.

 
Oh Paul, thank you SO much! My mom called frantically as she couldn't find the recipe

and I couldn't find it in my recipe box. You have saved the day!!

THANK YOU!

 
fixed encoding version

These are my favorites - soooo good! (Probably better to start out with more rum and raisins than called for, because you'll need to keep checking to see if the raisins are done soaking ...hic!) ;O)

Rum-And-Raisin Cookies
Canadian Living

These are melt-in-your-mouth shortbreads studded with “spirited” raisins.

½ c raisins
¼ c dark rum
1 c butter
½ c sifted icing sugar
2 c all purpose flour
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp baking powder

In small saucepan, combine raisins and rum. Bring to boil, remove from heat and let stand for about 1 hour; drain.

Cream together butter and sugar. Combine flour, salt and baking powder; gradually blend into creamed mixture. Stir in raisins. Press into ball. If dough is soft, chill until firm enough to roll.

Roll out to ¼” thickness on lightly floured board. Cut with round cookie cutter. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake in 325°F oven for about 15 minutes or until set and lightly browned.

Makes about 36.

 
I guess we'll need to start making a list

I can't even edit or even reply to that one from the front end. I'll have to fix some of these by editing the database so I'll start doing that when I have a big enough list.

 
This sounds like it would be great for Easter. Sounds refreshing and light. Thanks for reposting

 
Here's a temporary fix anyone should be able to do..

If you open a recipe that is not displaying correctly, try the following:

Right-click on the page.
Click on "Encoding" from the right-click menu that displays.
Click on "Western European (Windows)" to select from the choices available.
This should refresh the page and the characters should now be readable.
This is not a permanent fix, but it should work each time you encounter this issue.

 
depends which browser you are using

most browsers do not give you an encoding option by default in your right-click menu. In Firefox and Safari you'd need to go to the View menu > Text Encoding. Not sure about Chrome I'm looking at it now and I don't see it in any of the menus.

Also you may not see "Western European (Windows)" if you are not on a Windows PC, and you could try: "Western (ISO Latin 1)"

The "Windows" part of this is the culprit. Microsoft screwed up the text encoding world years ago with a proprietary approach and instead of conforming to international /industry standards, they did their own thing and the world had to conform (make allowances for) big bully Microsoft. They did the same thing with browsers (Internet Explorer - the bane of web developers) and programs like Microsoft Word put a bunch of proprietary Microsoft garbage (that the end user doesn't see) in all of the word processing it handles. Now that the browser world is more leveled out you don't see it as much but it used to be that pretty much every website had a bunch of custom code to accommodate / "fix" for the vast multitude of different versions of bugs that Windows plague Internet Explorer because it is such a piece of garbage but so many users used it by default that you had to do all this extra work because Microsoft was so belligerent.

And we are dealing with this issue here because we have very old code running the Swap that somewhere is dated and not handling this (Microsoft) issue. (end Microsoft rant Dec. 1, 2017)
