Ingredients

Cake layer

  • 1 package strawberry cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup butter at room temperature

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 1 package 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup butter at room temperature
  • 4 cups confectioners sugar

Strawberry Layer

  • 8 ounces strawberries sliced

Lemon Curd Layer

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup lemon juice
  • 4 tablespoons butter

Stabilized Whipped Cream Layer

  • Stabilized whipped cream layer
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese

Instructions

  • Mix cake layer ingredients together and spread in a 9X13 pan. Mix cream cheese layer ingredients together and layer over top of cake layer. Bake in 350 degree Fahrenheit preheated oven for about 35 minutes until outsides are set and inside is still slightly jiggly. Allow to cool for 30 minutes. Add strawberries.
  • For the lemon layer, add sugar, lemon juice and eggs to a very large mixing bowl or measuring cup and whisk together. Microwave on high at 30 second intervals (whisking between intervals) until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Add butter and whisk until melted. Allow to cool refrigerated for an hour and layer over top of cream cheese layer.
  • For stabilized whipped cream, add all ingredients to stand mixer and whip until medium peaks form. Spread in with key lime layer or pipe onto top.
