Tips for Success:
Softened cream cheese: Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before adding it to the dish. If it’s too cold, it won’t spread or melt well into the layers.
Even butter distribution: Drizzling the melted butter as evenly as possible ensures that the cake mix on top cooks properly and doesn’t leave large dry spots.
Don’t skip cooling: Letting the cake cool for 10-15 minutes allows the filling to set, making it easier to serve.
Health Benefits:
While this cake is more of an indulgent treat, it does contain some ingredients that have beneficial properties:
Lemon: High in vitamin C and antioxidants, lemon adds a burst of freshness and may support immune health.
Cream cheese: A good source of calcium and vitamin A, though it’s best enjoyed in moderation due to its fat content.
