Best 3 Limoncello Cake With Mascarpone Frosting Recipes

LIMONCELLO CAKE WITH MASCARPONE FROSTING RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• CAKE: Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 2 (9-inch) round cake pans and line with parchment paper. Grease and flour the parchment paper. Mix the limoncello, lemon juice, and lemon zest together and set aside. In a bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined and set aside. Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time. Add flour alternately with buttermilk and limoncello mixture. Bake cakes for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely in pans. Once cool, remove from pans. Place the first layer on serving plate. Frost top with 1/3 frosting. Place the second layer on top. Frost with half of the frosting. Use remaining frosting to frost the sides of the cake and decorate the top with optional white chocolate shavings. FROSTING: Cream together mascarpone cheese and lemon curd. Whip cream to medium peaks (about the same texture as thawed Cool Whip, stiffer than soft peaks), then slowly add the powdered sugar to the whipped cream until it's fully incorporated. Fold cheese mixture into whipped cream and mix until completely combined.

REFRESHING LIMONCELLO CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare an 8-inch cake pan with cooking spray.
• Whisk together the yogurt, eggs, canola oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and 4 tablespoons limoncello in a large bowl. In a separate large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet. Do not over mix or the cake will be tough. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
• Stir the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of limoncello together in a small bowl until smooth. Poke small holes all over the top of the still-warm cake with a fork or toothpick. Spoon the glaze over the cake and spread with the back of a spoon. The glaze will seep into the cake and add moisture.
