3. Next we add the sugar, the skin of the grated lemon, the butter, the two complete eggs and an additional yolk.
4. We mix well, using a fork or the rods. We have to let it rest for at least an hour, covering the bowl with a cloth.
5. While the cake paste rests, we are dedicated to the preparation of the custard. This is a quick and easy version, in which we use the microwave. We introduce all the ingredients into a bowl: the milk, the two egg yolks, the six tablespoons of sugar, the cornstarch and a little cinnamon to taste.
6. We beat everything well to eliminate possible lumps, and then we introduce the mixture into the microwave, three minutes at 800W of power. After this time we take it out, stir well and heat it again to the microwave, this time two minutes.
