Creamy Lemon Lush Dessert with Layers of Pudding, Crust, and Whipped Topping
Lemon lush dessert always brings me back to those cool, layered dishes we pulled from the fridge on warm afternoons. I start with a buttery crust that leans salty-sweet, then go heavy on lemon pudding and smooth whipped topping. This one lands right in the middle of my favorite lemon pudding recipes. It’s bright but soft, simple but layered. I’ve heard folks call it a lemon fluff dessert or even lemon delight recipe, and they’re all right.

Soft-Baked Lemon Ricotta Cookies with Tangy Glaze and Just Enough Sweet
I wanted lemon desserts that didn’t punch you in the face with tart, so I made these soft-baked lemon ricotta cookies instead. The ricotta adds moisture you can actually taste, and the lemon glaze dries down into a shiny topcoat that cracks just a little when you bite. They’re rich but not heavy, sweet but not sticky, and quietly addicting. I grate in the lemon zest, stir in fresh juice, and skip any extract nonsense. You don’t need fancy tools—just a bowl, a spoon, and a reason to not turn on the oven for a cake. I call that a win. #lemondesserts #ricottacookies #lemoncookies #lemonbaking

Fluffy Lemon Soufflé Pancakes - Emma's Cake Studio
I beat the egg whites stiff, fold the yolks with lemon juice, then let the batter sit while the griddle heats. That’s the trick. These lemon soufflé pancakes stay fluffy in the middle but hold structure enough to stack. They don’t collapse like some lemon pancakes do. Each bite gives a soft texture like a breakfast soufflé with enough lemon flavor to stand without syrup. I use a zester, not juice, for the strongest citrus hit. Works best hot with just a spoonful of yogurt. #lemonsoufflepancakes #lemonpancakesrecipe #soufflepancakes #lemondessert
