Strawberry Lemon Curd Cake

Lemon and strawberries. Does anything say spring more than lemon and strawberries? I don’t think so. Once again, I combined these two great flavors to make a delicious cake for our Easter dessert.

Strawberry Lemon Curd Cake

I made a lemon bundt cake and added lemon curd and diced strawberries as the filling. It was so moist and full of flavor.

Preheat the oven to 325* F or 163*C.

Spray a bundt cake pan with cooking spray.

2 cups flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/2 sticks softened butter

1 cup sugar

4 eggs

1/2 cup yogurt or sour cream

1 tsp vanilla

1 TBSP lemon juice

1 tsp lemon extract

1-1 1/2 cups diced strawberries

1/2-3/4 cup lemon curd

lemon glaze

colored sprinkles, optional

Combine all the dry ingredients together and mix well.

Beat the butter and sugar together, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing in between each addition. Mix in the yogurt or sour cream, lemon extract, lemon juice and vanilla.

Add the dry ingredients 1/2 at a time, mixing in between. Do not over mix.

Spoon 1/2 of the cake batter into the prepared pan, then spoon in the lemon curd, and spread it around the center of the cake. Add the diced strawberries. Add the remaining batter on top of the strawberries.

Bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the cake is golden and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle.

When the cake is completely cooled, remove from the pan and add the lemon glaze and colored sprinkles.

Lemon Glaze

2 cups powdered sugar

1 TBSP lemon juice

1 tsp vanilla

dash of milk

Whisk everything together until it is smooth and creamy. Drizzle over the cake.

I hope you all had a good Easter celebration. Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
