The Cake Slice Bakers (TCSB)

This is the last month we are baking

(and here is my cake)

from our current book

Southern Living, The Southern Cake Book

and in November 2015, 

we, The Cake Slice bakers will be

baking from our new book!

***

AND as Anabel said at her blog:

"Next month we will start baking from a new book. I look forward to baking and making new friendships  with the new members that have jouned our group, and will miss those who have chosen to leave this season. Anne from "From my Sweet Heart" joined our group in 2012, Kim from "The Ninja Baker" and Sandra from "Sweet Sensations" both joined in 2013, they are leaving the group this season. Their bakes were always picture perfect, and a delight to read. I will miss them terribly, and hope that they return again to bake with us in the near future. 

For those of you interested in joining the Cake Slice, a group of dedicated bakers, please contact Laura, our group administrator, with enquiries."

This cake Lemon Bar Cheesecake has three parts to it,

the lemon curd, the pastry and then the cheesecake filling,

four actually... including the candied lemon slices/peel curls

and since I used my 6" Wilton spring form pan,

I quartered the recipe which worked out

just nice and exact!

no leftover pastry and no leftover filling

but hey! I made the full recipe for the lemon curd

so I have plenty in the fridge! yumms!

 

and since I made a quarter of the recipe

I made candied lemon peel curls

instead of candied lemon slices

as the lemon slices will be too big for the cake

 

I tried twice to roll out the pastry (after two nights in the fridge)

but to no avail, hence I dump the whole ball into the lined pan

and pressed the pastry over the base and up the sides of the pan

WORKED just fine

and SLICE beautifully

OMG it is good!
