Lemon dainty

Yield: 4 Servings

Measure Ingredient

1 cup Milk

Source: Time Life Series, _The Good Cook_, vol. "Classic Desserts" Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine the butter, salt, sugar, and flour and mix well. Add egg yolks, milk, lemon juice and lemon peel. [I did the whole thing in the food processor]. Beat/whirl until smooth.

Beat egg whites and fold into batter.
