Lemon Cake Bites
These lemon cake bites are perfect to bring to a party, because they look super nice and are really tasty. Easy to prepare and a promised success even for baking beginners. My personal highlight is the cream cheese, but especially at hot temperatures it should not be stored for too long.-Josefine
