2018 Birthday Cake

My orders were clear I was to bake my own birthday cake to share with neighbors. So here is a vanilla cake with lemon curd swirled through and a whipped frosting.


This is a great cake to bring to any party. Unique, full of flavor and not too sweet!


Ingredients:
1 box vanilla cake mix
ingredients needed to make cake (eggs, oil and water)
1 (15.75 oz) can lemon pie filling*
1 box lemon flavored instant pudding mix
1 ( 8 oz) tub whipped topping (COOL WHIP), thawed
*You can find the can of lemon pie filling on the baking aisle (where all the other canned pie filling is located.) I had a coupon for this lemon fruit filling that is in a jar but usually I go with the canned stuff which I think it holds up better to the baking process.

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F degrees
Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. 


 
Since this was to be carried, I used a foil pan with a clear lid. Any time you use a foil pan, place it inside a regular metal pan for support and safety. 
 

Prepare cake mix as directed on the back of the box. 


Pour batter into baking dish.




Place spoonfuls of lemon pie filling all over the batter.
Take a knife and swirl it all around to help evenly distribute it better.


Note: The lemon pie filling is heavier than the cake batter. So it will sink to the bottom of the cake as it is cooking. Don’t worry, it won’t burn. This is normal.

Bake at 350F degrees (in center rack) for about 35-40 minutes. Until it springs back to the touch and isn’t jiggly in the center. 



Let cake cool completely before proceeding to the next step.


 In a bowl, Fold the lemon pudding mix into the thawed whipped topping. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Spread frosting over cooled cake.


Refrigerate until chilled and keep any leftovers refrigerated.
