Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake Cake

I love a good layered cake! Layering cake adds more flavor and texture to the dessert. This Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake Cake is sweet and tangy. The texture comes out soft and fluffy for a perfect dessert.

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients into a medium pot and cook over medium to high heat
  2. Stir the sauce occasionally while it cooks for about 10-15 minutes
  3. Once it begins to thicken, reduce the heat and stir for 1 minute before removing it from the heat and allow it to cool completely

Cheesecake Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees and spray the 9in a round cake pan with pam baking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper
  2. Using a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and flour together until combined and smooth
  3. Beat in the sour cream and vanilla until combined and smooth
  4. One at a time, beat in the eggs until combined
  5. Pour half of the cheesecake batter into the cake pan
  6. Dollop about half of the strawberry sauce onto the cheesecake batter
  7. Pour remaining cheesecake batter on top of the strawberry sauce
  8. Dollop and swirl remaining strawberry sauce on top of the cheesecake batter
  9. Fill a 9x13 baking dish halfway with hot water
  10. Place the baking dish onto the bottom rack of your oven
  11. Place the cheesecake on the top rack, above the center of the baking dish
  12. Bake in the oven for 1 hour
  13. Once the timer goes off, leave the cheesecake in the oven for another 45 minutes to allow it to set
  14. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the counter before placing it in the fridge overnight

Strawberry and Lemon Cake Layers

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray the cake pans with pam baking spray, set aside
  2. Using two large bowls, in one bowl, beat the strawberry cake mix, water, eggs, and canola oil until combined
  3. Pour the batter into one of the 9in round cake boards
  4. Repeat the same steps with the lemon cake mix
  5. Bake both cake pans in the oven for 25 - 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean
  6. Allow cooling completely
  7. Remove the cake layers from the pans and place onto the 9in cake boards
  8. Remove the domes from the cakes to create even layers
  9. Cover and allow to ‘rest’ overnight. This will allow the cakes to be more sturdy when you build the cake with the cheesecakes

Lemon Frosting Directions

  1. Using a standing mixer, beat all ingredients until combined, smooth, and hold a peak

Building the cake directions :

  1. Using the strawberry cake layer, carefully move the cake layer to the 10in round cake board.
  2. Scoop 1 C of frosting onto the top of the strawberry cake layer and spread evenly
  3. Carefully remove the strawberry cheesecake from the cake pan and place it on top of the frosting
  4. Scoop 1 C of frosting onto the top of the cheesecake and spread evenly
  5. Place the lemon cake layer on top
  6. Using the remaining frosting, frost the entire cake. This is called ‘crumb coating’. Place the cake into the fridge for about an hour to firm up
  7. Scoop remaining frosting into the piping bag, set aside
  8. Once the cake has firmed up slightly, remove it from the fridge
  9. Using the piping bag, pipe quick dollops of frosting all over the cake
  10. Place the completely frosted cake into the fridge to firm up again for about an hour before enjoying it!
