1 1/2 dl (2/3 cup) sugar
3 egg yolks
grated peel from 1 lemon
3 dl (1 1/4 cups) flour

Directions
Butter and flour a star-shaped baking dish. Stir butter and sugar foamy and stir in the egg yolks, one by one. Add lemon peel, flour and half of the beaten egg whites - the rest are for decoration.

Bake until half done, about 20 minutes, at 200C/400F. Then you take it out and gently spread with remaining egg white foam, beaten even more with 3 tbs sugar. Bake until done, about 20 minutes more, unmold, and decorate the cold cake with red berries of your own choice. Enjoy!
