Ingredients:
1/2 cup cake flour
1/2 cup sugar
6 large egg whites
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 lemon
Directions:
1. Sift flour and half of the sugar (=1/4 cup) in a bowl.
2. Cut the lemon in half. Combine half the lemon juice with vanilla extract. If you want an extra burst of flavour, finely chop up the lemon skin, about 1 tablespoon worth. Set the mixture aside.
3. Beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until peaks form.
4. Add in the remaining sugar in the egg mixture slowly; mix at high speed until peaks.
5. Add in flour to the egg mixture, and mix at low speed only until it's mixed completely.
6. Separate batter into 12 cupcake trays.
7. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.
