Jewel,

Thank you for posting this. It sounds good. Let me clarify a question.

 

The title " Lacy " makes me think maybe these cakes are in a lacy form. When you

use one tablespoon of batter are you dropping it all together, like a pancake,

or are you dribbling it around in a pattern to make it lacy?
