My husband, Lloyd, loves this cake since it tastes like lemon meringue pie. It's little fuss and makes just enough for the two of us.—Dawn Fagerstrom, Warren, Minnesota

Ingredients

1 large egg, separated
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

Directions

In a bowl, beat egg yolk. Add sugar, milk, flour, lemon juice, zest and salt; beat until smooth. Beat egg white until stiff peaks form; gently fold into lemon mixture. Pour into two ungreased 6-oz. custard cups (cups will be very full). Place the cups in an 8-in. square baking pan. Pour boiling water into pan to a depth of 1 in. Bake at 325° for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and top is golden. If desired, serve with whipped cream.
