French Apple Pudding Cake With Lemon Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Mix flour and butter until crumbly. Add the almonds and sugar. Knead together well.
• Divide the dough into 4 sections. Roll each section into even thin layers. HERE'S WHERE GEOMETRY IS NEED. You will need to cut each piece into the desired size you will need. These will be large cookies that you'll put together to form your cake, so your layers must be uniform.
• Put the layers on a cookie sheet (you'll have to bake 2 at a time but it's ok). Bake for 12 - 15 minutes till the layers are light golden.
• Carefully slide them off the cookie sheet and cool.
• Make your filling:.
• Bring the sugar and 3/4 cup water to a boil. Add chopped apples. A few minutes later add almonds, citron and lemon juice. Cook the mix until it becomes lie a thick jelly consistency. Careful, so it doesn't burn. Remove from heat and cool.
• Once you've baked and cooled your large cookies, spread a layer of filling on each layer and cover top with the lemon glaze, letting it drip down the sides. Chill overnight in refrigerator. Before serving you'll need to let the cake stand at room temp for about 1 hour to get abit soft.
