OK, I was totally surprised by what this actually was! When I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a cake! In the states, we don't really use the terms "traybake" or "slice"... so I'm always trying to figure out what some thing is just by looking at the photo. I've never made a recipe that is like this, basically a sandwich cookie! Do you feel like the dough was more of a sugar cookie or a shortbread?
@MagentaOtterTravels It's an adaptation of the Be-Ro rich jam cake recipe. I doubled the ingredients and added the lemon curd filling, lemon extract and buttercream icing. The dough has the texture, but not the taste, of marzipan. It turns out somewhere between digestive biscuits and shortbread. That'll be because of the mix between butter and shortening.
Boppy you are such a tidy and perfect baker of all things delightful. This looks like something we would enjoy with our coffee ( and tea). Keep on sharing these lovely recipes Boppy. I really enjoy them. 🩷🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
@IamaDutch-Kiwi Ha! You should see how much time I spend cleaning up the mess between shots. 🤣 This is one of my very own recipes. I just took little bits from the recipe books. You'd think that someone making a recipe of his own would know how much flour he had used. 😁😁😂😂🤣🤣 Glad you like the recipes Anita. I'm working on a special one from Thailand. I'm having to guess the ingredients from Puy's videos as she only shows how to make them in bulk.

Very nice my friend! 😀
@glenlapwing8468 Glad you like it. 😁
That sounds very yummy -- lemon is one of the great dessert flavours that I'd even forsake chocolate to eat.
@ellenspear50 It certainly is yummy. With more lemon curd and lemon extract in the icing it would be even yummier. 😁
Interesting that the recipe calls for both butter and shortening!

I'm a little confused by the white icing. What was that for?
@MagentaOtterTravels That didn't work at all like it should have.😢 I've put a photo on my Community page on what it was supposed to look like.
