Lemon Velvet Cream Cake

Submitted by Bonnie G #2

"A Betty Crocker recipe that starts with a boxed mix to simplify it. I used a lemon curd recipe for a filling and to make it more special. Whip cream and cream cheese makes for a wonderful frosting"

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 1 8
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 1 (15 ounce) box lemon cake mix
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest, grated
• 2 cups whipping cream
• 2⁄3 cup powdered sugar
• 1 lemon twist, if desired

directions

1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottoms only of two 8- or 9-inch round cake pans with shortening (do not use cooking spray).
2. Make, bake and cool cake as directed on box for 8- or 9-inch rounds. Refrigerate layers 45 minutes for easier handling.
3. Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat cream cheese, milk and 1 tablespoon lemon peel with electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Beat in whipping cream and powdered sugar. Beat on high speed, scraping bowl occasionally, until stiff peaks form.
4. Slice each cake layer in half horizontally to make a total of 4 layers. (To cut, mark side of cake with toothpicks and cut with long, thin knife.) Fill each layer with 1/2 cup whipped cream mixture. Frost side and top of cake with remaining whipped cream mixture. Garnish with additional lemon twist. Store covered in refrigerator.
