Easy recipe: spring lemon cake without baking

Ingredients:

• 
  Butter - 250 g


• 
  Sugar - 300 g


• 
  Cookies - 300 g


• 
  Four - six medium lemons (can be replaced by other citruses)


• 
  Six eggs


• 
  Starch - 1 tbsp.

Cooking method:

1. 
   To make the basis of the cake, grind the cookies manually or in a blender to a fine crumb. Varying shades of taste, try different types of cookies: waffle, oatmeal, peanut, chocolate, ginger


2. 
   Hundred and fifty grams of butter melted in a saucepan,pour it into the prepared crumb, mix well and put it in a removable form. Form the sides and bottom of the cake, carefully primed mass. Place the form in the refrigerator


3. 
   To prepare the lemon kyrd, prepare the zest. Try to remove only the thin upper layer of the peel - its white part is bitter. Mix sugar with zest in the bowl


4. 
   Squeeze the juice from citrus and add to sugar


5. 
   Strain the sugar-lemon mixture through the sieve with the yolks in the saucepan. Stir and place on a moderate fire


6. 
   Add the remaining oil to the mixture and bring toboiling. Remove from the fire when large bubbles begin to appear on the surface and the mass begins to thicken. If you need a more dense consistency of the cream - add to the mousse, which is still on fire, a mixture of starch and water, diluted in a separate glass (one tablespoon)


7. 
   Slightly cool the mousse, fill the base with it and let the whole cake cool. Then put the dessert in the fridge and let it brew for a couple of hours
