Meyer Lemon Cake

I've been "forced" to endure chocolate desserts since before Valentine's Day! I have been a good girl and baked chocolate treats for others. I don't eat them! I've been craving a light, springy dessert that I will LIKE! I decided to make this for today's book club pot luck lunch (with a slight variation).

Meyer Lemon Cake with Lavender Cream

I followed the recipe using Meyer lemons for both the cake and filling. I also used some of my tangerine olive oil for part of the olive oil in the cake. It looks great.
I did omit the lavender, and used Italian lemon honey and Meyer lemon zest for the whipped cream. I can't wait to try it. I will let you know how it turned out!

Mmmm...looks good. My favorite desserts are apple, chocolate and then lemon but the lemon is relatively recent thing. It's just so refreshing.
