Did any of you ever try the gebrochts crinkle cookies from KBD Pesach cookbook?

(Another gebrochts eater who likes to have mezonos around sometimes too Wink

)

Yep that's our problem! I find shmura matzah meal = the number one way to make a "tastes like Pesach cake".

However I have a lovely Pesach lasagna recipe if you are interested...

Mix all except egg yolk, adding a bit of oil if needed until mixture just holds together. Put in freezer for 15 min and preheat oven to 400. Grease glass pie pan with margarine. Press in crust with hands, and mix yolk with a few drops of water. Brush yolk over crust and bake 5-7 min. Cool.

Filling:
3 whole eggs and 4 yolks (whites will be top)
1 C sugar
2 T lemon zest
1/2. C fresh lemon juice
1/2 C melted margarine

Beat egg and yolk. Add sugar, lemon juice, peel. Beat. Add melted margarine. Cook in double boiler or microwave until thick and bubbly, stirring frequently. Pour into crust and chill.

Top
4 whites
1/4 t salt
6 T sugar

Beat whites until very stiff. Add sugar and salt, and vanilla if using, beating slowly. Cover pie with topping, spreading it to seal edges, and making pretty peaks. Bake at 325 for 12-15 min.

I had plans since this thread was started to post once I had my cook book out and didn't check to see if anybody else had posted it.

It's a great cake.

I'd go with c.c.cookie's brownie cake as the cocoa can cover the matzah meal taste.

If you have a food processor put the marza meal in it blend and sift and use only the fine part

Thank you for your help.
I already made potato starch brownies. Is there anything else you can think of?
