LEMON LOVE CAKE (SANDRA LEE)



Lemon Love Cake (Sandra Lee) image

Found this on Food Network site for Sandra Lee's Semi Homemade. I love lemon, and sounds like something I just have to try. Starts off with a store bought Pound cake. When trying to type in the prepared store bought cake, it won't allow to show as "Pound" it shows "lb."

Time 10m

Yield 1 cake, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 prepared poundcake, ring store bought
1 (10 ounce) jar lemon curd
1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (1 lb) box powdered sugar
1/2 cup frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 tablespoon lemon gelatin
1/4 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed

Steps:

  • To make the cake, begin with a serrated knife and level the bigger end of the cake. This will be the bottom. Slice off top inch of cake. Carefully set aside (do not break). Scoop out a trench in the cake for the filling. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine lemon curd and 1 cup of whipped topping. Stir gently to combine, being careful not to over-stir. Fill center of cake with filling and cover with the reserved top of the cake.
  • To make the icing, place all icing ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine. Make sure that all lumps are dissolved. Drizzle icing over cake until completely covered in icing. Let set before serving.
  • Cook's Notes:
  • Pound cake ring can be decorated with a beautiful nosegay of roses or other edible flowers placed in the center hole. Alternatively, you can buy frozen pound cake loaf and layer lemon cream mixture between slices. Top with more lemon cream and garnish with fresh berries.
  • Can also garnish with fresh lemon zest.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ounces cream cheese, softened (not reduced-fat or whipped)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1 1/4 cups buttermilk, divided
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease and flour a 6 to 8-cup bundt pan and set aside.
  • Blend the cream cheese with the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and the vanilla.
  • Scrape the bowl; add the egg and mix well. Set aside while you prepare the cake batter.
  • Sift the flour, the 1-1/3 cups granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl; whisk briefly to blend.
  • Whisk in the oil, lemon zest, and about half of the buttermilk until smooth. This first addition will prevent lumps from forming; do not be tempted to pour in all of the liquid at once.
  • Whisk in the remaining buttermilk, mixing only long enough to combine.
  • Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  • Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the batter, trying to center it in the pan so it doesn't reach either edge.
  • Cover with the remaining batter.
  • Bake for about 55 minutes, until the top is golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. If you check it with a toothpick or cake tester, there should be only traces of cream cheese and no loose batter.
  • Cool the cake in the pan for 15 minutes; invert onto a rack to cool completely.
  • To add the final touch, stir the lemon juice into the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake in a random pattern.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemon zest and juice provide the best flavor for this cake. If you don't have fresh lemons on hand, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs: Adding the eggs one at a time will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This Lemon Love Cake is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. The moist and tender crumb, combined with the bright and tangy lemon flavor, makes this cake a winner. Whether you are serving it for dessert or enjoying it as a snack, this cake is sure to please everyone.
