    I like it, but next time I will use a little less sugar. Thanks for the recipe.

    I made this last night and my husband really liked it. I liked it too- but It wasn't what I thought it was. I like it better completely cooled down. The lemon seems more complimentry to the cake when it is cool. I also made it in 9x9 pan and it came out nicely- with reasonably thick cake squares, I don't think I will ever make a single recipe in a 13x9x2 pan, as suggested- it would be too thin. Will make again, thanks!

    I can't say how delighted I am to have found this recipe! Once I started munching I couldn't quit & they couldn't be easier to make (maybe not such a good deal:o) I cut the recipe in half, baking it in a round cake pan & it turned out wonderful. A yummy light cake w/ a little zing of lemon. (Just a note: the vanilla is not in order with when to include it) Thanks for posting!
