Burst of Citrus Sponge Pudding
As this bakes, a foamy cake layer will form on top, with an airy custardy pudding forming on the bottom. Adapted from an old issue of McCall's magazine. I haven't tried this one yet, but wanted to share it. Garnish with powdered sugar, a handful of fresh raspberries, and a few slices of orange if you like.
