Strawberry Lemonade Cake Bites Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil over medium heat. Add the sliced strawberries and continue to cook until the syrup thickens slightly and forms small foamy bubbles, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Whisk the heavy cream in a medium mixing bowl until it forms soft peaks. Add 1 tablespoon of the strawberry syrup and whisk to firm peaks. Remove the sliced strawberries from the syrup and discard or save for another use.
• Process the shortbread cookies in a blender or food processor or crush by hand to make fine crumbs. Transfer the crumbs to a plate.
• Holding one of the strawberries by the stem, dip it into the syrup, let the excess drain off and then dip it into the cookie crumbs. You may need to pat on the crumbs a bit to make sure they adhere to the strawberry. Place the strawberry on a plate. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
• Spoon the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip. Pipe a small rosette of whipped cream in the middle of each strawberry. Serve within an hour.

Steps:

• For the crust: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing for a 2-inch overhang on the sides.
• Place the cookies in a resealable plastic bag. Seal and use a rolling pin or meat mallet to crush the cookies into fine crumbs. Pour into a bowl and add the granulated sugar, lemon zest and salt. Pour the melted butter into the bowl and mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the baking dish in an even layer. Place in the freezer while you make the filling.
• For the filling: Beat the heavy cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• Beat the cream cheese, vanilla and lemon zest and juice in a bowl until fluffy and light, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar and sour cream. Beat until just combined, making sure there are no lumps. Fold in the whipped cream. Remove the crust from the freezer. Pour the mixture over the crust and spread in an even layer. Place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the baking dish. When ready to serve, arrange the strawberries on top and sprinkle some lemon zest over the top. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Steps:

• Make cake according to box and bake in 2- 9 inch round cake pans as directed. Turn finished cakes over on cake racks and allow to cool completely.
• Cream together cream cheese, lemonade and yellow food coloring until smooth. Mix marshmallow creme in and then mix in Cool Whip until completely smooth.
• Refrigerate until cake is cooled and cut. Cut each cake layer in half.
• Alternating layers of cake with layers of filling, assemble cake. End with layer of filling.
• Top with sliced strawberries.
• Refrigerate and serve chilled.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Grease three 8-inch (20 cm) tins with butter or cooking spray, then sprinkle with flour to cover all sides, shaking off any excess. Cut out three rounds of parchment paper to fit in the bottom of each tin.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sugar and use a hand mixer to beat until it has tripled in volume and is thick and pale yellow in color.
• Continue blending and gradually add the olive oil. Add the vanilla extract, lemon zest, lemon juice, and milk, and mix until smooth.
• Sift in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently incorporate into the liquid batter until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
• Evenly divide the batter into the three baking tins.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until cakes are lightly golden and fork comes out clean from the center.
• Allow cakes to cool into the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a baking rack to cool completely.
• Using a hand mixer, whisk the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add in the strawberry jam whisking together until fully incorporated and peaks are stiff.
• Keep in the fridge until ready to use.
• To assemble, start with a bottom layer of cake. Cover top with a generous amount of icing, followed by an even layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat with the remaining layers.
• Finish the cake by icing the top and sides with icing, and garnishing the top with remaining strawberries.
• Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Combine cake mix, 1 cup water, eggs, vegetable oil, lemon zest, and juice in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 21 to 26 minutes.
• Bring 1 cup water to a boil. Pour in strawberry gelatin mix and stir until dissolved. Mix in 1/4 cup cold water.
• Use a fork to poke holes all over the cake. Pour gelatin mixture all over the cake. Refrigerate until completely cool, at least 1 hour.
• Combine lemon pudding mix and milk until slightly thickened. Fold in whipped topping. Top cake with the pudding mixture. Keep refrigerated.

Steps:

• Place strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice for the reduction into an electric blender and puree until smooth.
• Pour strawberry mixture into a large saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, until reduced by 1/2, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup plus 5 tablespoons for cake and frosting; remainder will be used as cake filling.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch cake pans and line with parchment paper.
• Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Beat sugar and butter using an electric mixer in a large bowl until creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Mix in lemon zest and vanilla extract. Stir in 1/3 of the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in 1/2 of the sour cream, and 1/2 of the lemon juice. Repeat alternating additions of flour mixture and sour cream plus lemon juice until just combined, making sure not to overmix.
• Place 1/2 of the batter into a separate bowl. Fold in 1/2 cup strawberry reduction. Place dollops of both lemon and strawberry-lemon batters alternately into the prepared cake pans. Swirl batters together with a butter knife.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes in the pans before removing and transferring cakes to a wire rack to cool completely, 15 to 30 minutes.
• While cakes are cooling, beat butter for frosting with an electric mixer in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in powdered sugar 1 cup at a time until incorporated. Mix in 5 tablespoons strawberry reduction, lemon juice, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and salt until combined. Pour in heavy cream and beat until frosting is smooth and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add additional powdered sugar if too thin, or additional heavy cream if too thick, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
• Place 1 cooled cake layer on a serving platter and cover top with a thin layer of frosting. Pipe a border around the edge of the cake layer using a piping bag filled with frosting, leaving the center open. Pour remaining strawberry reduction into the center of the border, making sure it doesn't overflow over the sides. Place second cake layer on top and continue to frost as desired. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*F.
• Grease your baking pans well with coconut oil or palm shortening or other oil of choice.
• *** Please note: I used a 9 1/2 inch x 2 inch round enameled pan for this cake, and it made a single 1 1/2 inch layer. Double the recipe for a 2-layer cake, or use smaller pans and divide the batter. ***.
• Measure dry ingredients (coconut flour, tapioca starch, psyllium fiber powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt) into a mixing bowl and whisk together.
• Add palm shortening to dry ingredients and carefully mix until well combined. The tapioca starch will fly everywhere if you mix too fast.
• Remove stems from strawberries and rinse. Mash with a fork or puree in a blender or food processor. Add lemon juice and mix well.
• Batter will be fluffy, not pourable. Spread it into well-greased pan.
• Place a layer of parchment paper over the top of the cake and use your hands to smooth the cake batter to an even layer. Trim off excess parchment paper and leave it on the cake while baking.
• Bake at 350*F for 30 minutes.
• Remove cake from oven and remove parchment paper immediately, to prevent condensation on the cake.
• Let cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Shake the cake pan lightly to loosen the cake. Place a cooling rack face down on the cake pan. Holding cake pan in one hand, and cooling rack on top with the other, flip the cake onto the cooling rack. Let cake cool completely before frosting.
• Frost with lemon frosting. (https://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/vegan-quot-cream-cheese-quot-frosting-536008).
