Gluten Free Lemon Cloud Cake Recipe

I created this cake some time ago, but I was thinking about making another one and discovered that I never posted about it. This cake is so easy to make. Of course you can make a cake from scratch if you want to, but I wanted mine to be easy, so I used a mix.  The Lemon Cloud Cake would be perfect for a party or a shower.

Ingredients

1. 1 box of your favorite gluten free cake mix. I used Betty Crocker Gluten Free White Cake Mix
2. 2/3 cup lemon juice
3. 1 stick butter or margarine
4. 3 eggs
5. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6. 1 teaspoon lemon extract
7. 1/4 cup sugar
8. 1/3 cup gluten free flour
9. 1 16 oz jar of Lemon Curd
10. 1 pint heavy cream
11. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12. 1/4 cup sugar
13. 2 tablespoons lemon zest

Instructions

1. Make the cake according to directions on the back of the box, except substitute the 1/3 cup lemon juice for part of the water, and add 1/4 cup sugar.
2. Spray two 8″ or 9″ cake pans with olive oil spray, then coat the pans with gluten free flour.
3. Divide the cake batter evenly between the two pans.
4. Bake in a 350° oven for 25-35 minutes. Let the cake layers cool completely.
5. Pour the heavy cream into a large mixing bowl.
6. Add the vanilla and sugar. Beat on high speed with an electric mixer until the cream is thickened.
7. Place one cake layer on a cake plate, top down.
8. Spread 1/2 of the lemon curd on the layer, then spread half of the whipped cream over the lemon curd.
9. Place the second layer top up on top on the first layer.
10. Spread with the rest of the lemon curd and whipped cream.
11. Sprinkle with lemon zest.
12. Refrigerate until serving.
