½cupsalted buttercold
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Spread the lemon curd in the bottom of a 9”x13” baking dish.
Beat together cream cheese, egg, and granulated sugar until mixture is smooth and creamy.
Spoon dollops of the cream cheese mixture over the lemon curd in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the lemon and cream cheese mixtures to cover the layers underneath and form a flat surface.
Slice very thin pats of butter and spread over the entire top of the dry cake mix. Cover as much of the cake mix as possible.
Bake about 30-35 minutes until the topping is browned.
Serve warm or room temperature.
Notes
You can use lemon pie filling in place of the lemon curd (although I personally love the flavor of lemon curd - especially homemade - over canned lemon pie filling.)
