Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 box Yellow Cake Mix
  • 1/2 cup Butter, melted

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream

Glaze

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven and Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather all your ingredients to ensure you have everything ready to go.
  2. Mix the Cream Cheese Layer: In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and sour cream, mixing until well combined.
  3. Prepare the Cake Base: Spread the yellow cake mix evenly in the bottom of a greased baking dish. This will serve as the foundation for your cake.
  4. Add the Cream Cheese Mixture: Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the cake mix, spreading it out evenly to cover the base.
  5. Melt the Butter: Melt the butter and drizzle it over the cream cheese layer, ensuring even coverage for that lovely golden crust.
  6. Bake the Cake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

Notes

  • Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
  • Mix just until combined to maintain a tender cake texture.
  • Use a toothpick to check if the center is set before removing it from the oven.
  • Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving to enhance the flavors.
  • A dollop of whipped cream or ice cream complements the cake perfectly.
