If you haven’t made a poke cake before, allow me to explain the process. The cake is baked as usual then once it has cooled, you use the handle of a spoon to poke holes into the top. In this case, the holes are filled with lemon curd and the flavor seeps into the cake. More lemon goodness in every bite, we can get behind that.
Once you’ve piped in the lemon curd, it’s time to add the frosting. A homemade lemon cream cheese frosting is generously spread over the top. For the final step, spoon the remaining lemon curd in small portions around the cake and use a knife or chopstick to swirl the toppings together. Now it’s time to stand back and admire your masterpiece. Give this Lemon Cream Cheese Cake a try for your next special occasion and I’m sure you’ll love it as much as we do. Happy baking!
