PREP: 15 MINS COOK: 50 MINS SERVES 10 Transform a classic lemon drizzle cake into a self-saucing pud for a cheap, comforting dessert. Serve with cream or custard
250g soft butter, plus extra for the dish 380g caster sugar
4 eggs
250g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
3 lemons, zested and juiced
2½ tbsp cornflour custard or cream, to serve
FOR THE DRIZZLE
50g icing sugar
1 lemon, juiced and zested 1
Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter a
30 x 20cm deep baking dish.
2
Put the butter and 250g caster sugar in a bowl and beat for 5 mins until pale and fluffy. Whisk in the eggs, then sieve over the flour and baking powder and fold in until you have a batter. Stir in the lemon zest, reserving a little for decoration.
3
Spoon the sponge batter into the dish and smooth over the top.
4
Mix the lemon juice with the cornflour in a heatproof bowl to make a smooth paste. Mix the remaining 130g caster sugar with 300ml boiling water in a jug, pour over the cornflour mix and whisk until smooth. Pour this over the sponge. Bake for 45-50 mins until golden and set, and the sponge springs back when touched.
5
While the pudding is baking, make the lemon drizzle. Mix the icing sugar with enough lemon juice (about half of it) to create a loose consistency. Drizzle over the sponge while it’s still warm and decorate with the reserved lemon zest. Serve straightaway with cream or custard.
RECIPE TIPS QUICK LEMON CURD
Lemons are a cheap and easy ingredient to have on standby for a last-minute pudding. Combined with a bit of sugar and cornflour from the store cupboard, they create a cheat’s lemon curd that transforms a simple sponge into a crowdpleasing dessert.

CARRICK RANGERS Anderson 45+1, Loughran 52’ (pen) GLENAVON
Coates 4, Mccloskey 13, Campbell 54, O’connor 57 (pen)
THE game may have been played in the eye of a storm, but it was raining goals at the Loughshore Hotel Arena, with Gary Hamilton’s 10-man Glenavon pocketing the crucial three points.
Colin Coates, Conor Mccloskey, Peter Campbell and Michael O’connor netted for the visitors with goals from Lloyd Anderson and Caolan Loughran’s double keeping Rangers in touch.
Visiting boss Hamilton (inset) couldn’t hide his anger when defender Lee Mcnulty was dismissed after picking up a second yellow card.
“The tackle happened right in front of the dug-out and never in a million years was it a sending off,” claimed Hamilton. “Lee won the ball cleanly it was a ridiculous decision. Fair play to the players, they hung in to come away with the win.”
Rangers boss Niall Currie admitted Glenavon deserved their success.
“Our performance lacked the levels we have been at in recent games,” he said. “We had been playing good attacking stuff, but against Glenavon we played no-risk football, too much sideways and backwards.”
