Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
18 oz strawberry jam, 1 jar
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 ⅓ cups milk
½ cup butter, melted, 1 stick
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 lemon, zested
1 lemon, juiced
2 cups powdered sugar
1 lemon, zested
1 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Grease an 11-inch (25cm) round cake pan and line with parchment paper.
  • Make the cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until fully incorporated and smooth. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, cook the strawberry jam until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • Make the cake batter: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt and whisk to combine.
  • Add the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla and whisk until fully incorporated. Stir in the lemon zest and juice.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Transfer the reserved cream cheese filling and reduced jam to 2 piping bags fitted with round tips or zip-top bags with a corner cut off.
  • Starting in the center, pipe in a layer of jam in a spiral shape, moving towards the outside of the cake. Pipe a layer of cream cheese filling on top of the jam, following the swirl as closely as possible.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow cake to come to room temperature before removing from cake pan.
  • Make the lemon glaze: combine the powdered sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium bowl and whisk until a smooth glaze forms.
  • Remove the cooled cake from the pan and evenly pour over the glaze.
  • Allow the glaze to set before serving.
  • Enjoy!
