This was for TWD. I baked the cake on Sunday afternoon and my Monday night it was gone. In my house that usually means it was tasty! I couldn't find lemon marmalade, so the closest, and the one I used was Tangerine Marmalade. It was easy to make and smelled good while it was baking. I don't have a regular loaf pan, so I used a slightly rusty 500g pain de mie avec couvercle. It is a sandwich bread baking pan.
Sorry, no photos for this posting, the camera is in South Africa for a few weeks.

Lemon Cup Custard for TWD
OK, first, YUM! This was very polular at my house. Beautiful, eggy custard with a very slight hint of lemon. What's not to love?

Not Chocolate Armagnac Cake but Chocolate Wiskey Cake
This week for TWD we made Chocolate Armagnac Cake-The cake that got me fired. My version was whisky, not Armagnac. I also would have been fired, but not for creativity as was the case for Dorie, but for baking a not great cake in my case!
My learnings; take the time to go buy the bottle of Armagnac, chop the prunes a bit finer, and let the cake cool for more than an hour before frosting. All in all I didn't start working on this until after 8PM on a Monday night and was done before 11PM. And finally don't bake after a long day at work!
