I would like to know if anyone could help me with a lemon sauce recipe. I'm going to be making a gingerbread but would like to make a lemon sauce to serve over it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much! Cheryl from SC

Hi Cheryl, I thought you might like to see yet another tried and true recipe. Lemon Sauce 1/2 cup sugar 1/16 teaspoon salt 1/16 teaspoon ground cloves 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1/4 cup cold water 3/4 cup boiling water 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind 2 tablespoons butter or margarine 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Combine first 4 ingredients in a 3-cup saucepan. Blend in cold water and then add boiling water. Stir and cook over moderate heat until sauce is clear and has begun to thicken, about 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients. Serve over puddings, gingerbread, or plain cake. Makes 1 1/4 cups. This recipe was found at: www.worldpath.net/%7Ehiker/recipe.htmEnjoy, -Shortcake
