Directions:Limoncello Cake
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Lightly grease two 9-inch round cake pans and then line them with parchment paper. Grease and flour the parchment paper as well.
Combine flour, baking soda, and salt with a wire whisk. Set aside.
Cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time. Add flour alternately with buttermilk and limoncello mixed with lemon juice.
Bake cakes for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely in pans. Once cool, remove the limoncello cakes from the pans. Place one layer on serving plate.
Frost top with 1/3 frosting. Place the second layer on top. Frost with one-half of the frosting. Use remaining frosting to frost sides of cake. Decorate top with optional white chocolate shavings.
Frosting
Cream together mascarpone cheese and lemon curd. Next, either add whipped cream (or add whipped cream you have made yourself). Slowly add powdered sugar until all ingredients are added. Fold the cheese mixture into the whipped cream. |
