Ingredients:

  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups sifted cake flour
  • filling
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese, (i found this cheese to be quite expensive so i searched the internet and found a substitute for mascarpone cheese (combine 8 oz of softened cream cheese, 3 tbsp of sour cream and 2 tbsp of heavy cream; do not whip.)
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 (10 oz) jar lemon curd, divided
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice mixed with 3/4 cup of lemonade
  • confectioners' sugar
  • lemon slices

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom of a 9 inch spring form pan. Line the bottom with wax paper. Grease the wax paper.
  2. To prepare cake, place egg whites in a large mixing bowl. Add salt and cream of tartar. Beat until frothy with a mixer at high speed. Add granulated sugar gradually. Beat until soft peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Place egg yolks in a small bowl and stir with a fork. Add extracts. Fold into egg whites. Gradually fold in flour. Spread batter evenly in pan.
  4. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Do not remove the wax paper yet.
  5. To prepare the filling: beat whipping cream and granulated sugar with a mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate. Combine mascarpone cheese
  6. And confectioners' sugar; beat well with a mixer at medium speed. Blend in ricotta cheese. Add vanilla, lemon zest and 1/3 cup lemon curd. Mix well. Fold in the whipped cream.
  7. To prepare topping: spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons filling into remaining lemon curd in jar. Set aside.
  8. To prepare glaze: combine lemon juice mixture with the 1/2 cup of lemonade.
  9. To assemble, remove the wax paper from cake. Using a serrated knife, carefully slice into three layers. Brush first layer with 1/4 cup of the glaze and spread with 1 1/2 cups of filling.
  10. Top with second layer and brush on 1/4 cup glaze and spread with 1 1/2 cups filling. Top with third layer and brush on remaining glaze. Spread top with lemon curd topping. Frost sides with remaining
  11. Filling. Refrigerate several hours to overnight.
