The sun has been shining, the daffodils are in full bloom, and I am on an all things lemon kick lately. Yellow is such a pretty, fun, happy color, whether it be from the sun, flowers, or dessert, I can't seem to get enough. I know I've used lemons in several recipes here recently, but I'm not even going to apologize for it. As a kid, when other kids were asking their mom for candy at the grocery store, I was asking mine if I could go home with a lemon. Weird kid? Probably. But that's how we breed them in my family. For my daughter it was cucumbers. Like, what 5 year old goes to the store and asks for a lemon or a cucumber? Apparently just us odd ones. I bought myself some yellow tulips this week, since tulips are my favorite flower, and I feel that on some unconscious level, looking at them every time I went into the kitchen had me craving something lemony. I found myself browsing through Golden Blossom Honey's recipes looking for something to scratch my lemon itch, and found this Tangy Lemon Dessert Sauce that I knew was going to be the winner. 

 

 

I always have some kind of dessert on hand, like in the section of my freezer that's reserved for stashing pound cake, ice cream, and other little indulgences. I did just buy an angel food cake from the bakery with intentions of making some strawberry shortcake, but berries are so ridiculously priced right now, at the grocers they stayed. So what better time than now to mix up a lemon dessert sauce for my sad little angel cake? Not only was this an amazing way to dress up a plain angel food cake, I ended up using it on pancakes too when I realized we were all out of maple syrup. What a fantastic swap that was! Like with most sauces, I doubled the batch because this will keep in an air tight container in the refrigerator for several days, and with the whole family wanting dessert after dinner or as a breakfast topping, I knew we'd go through a single batch fairly quickly. I had to refrain from licking the last bits out of the bowl, but did straighten myself out in the nick of time and used a silicone spatula to get every last drop onto my pancakes. You know a recipe is good when you're desperately trying to scrape every last bit out of the bowl. If you're a lemon junkie like me, this is a recipe you're not going to want to let slip past you!
