LEMON VELVET CREAM CAKE RECIPE - BETTYCROCKER.COM



Lemon Velvet Cream Cake Recipe - BettyCrocker.com image

The four layers of rich and velvety lemon cake in this spring dessert are impressive, but the real star of this citrusy stunner is the silky-smooth homemade frosting. Tucked between each tier and wrapped along the outside of the cake, one lick of the frosting taste and you’ll quickly understand why this lemon velvet cake is so popular. The satiny spread is made from a combination of cream cheese and whipping cream, sweetened with powdered sugar and grated lemon peel. The tangy flavor of the luxurious frosting paired with the moist lemon velvet cake base is what makes this showstopper a popular fan-favorite.

Prep Time 20 minutes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ lemon cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
2 cups whipping cream
2/3 cup powdered sugar
Lemon twist, if desired

  • When cake is cool, make the icing: Add lemon juice and icing sugar to a bowl and whisk together until smooth, adding a bit more juice if necessary, just until the icing moves when you tilt the bowl. Pour over the cake and gently spread out. The blueberries on the top of the cake may bleed into the icing a little, but this will add to the look. Let icing set (about 30 minutes), slice and serve.

BEET RED VELVET CAKE RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Pamela Moxley, the pastry chef at Miller Union in Atlanta, developed this cake as part of a book project for Steven Satterfield, the co-owner and chef. She uses dutched, nonacidic cocoa powder so she punched up the acid with extra lemon juice, which helps with the bright red color. She adds goat cheese to her cream cheese frosting, to play against the subtle beet flavor. The chef liked it so much that he added it to the restaurant menu.
