Ingredients
| 1/3 |
cup sugar |
| 1/4 |
cup sugar |
| 1/4 |
cup lemon juice |
| 12 |
ounces cake |
| 8 |
ounces of light cream cheese |
| 1 |
cup of cream |
| 2 |
cups of berries |
Directions
- 1. Make lemon syrup: In a small saucepan, bring 1/4 cup sugar, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Let cool completely, then brush over both sides of cake slices. Quarter each slice.
- 2. With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese with remaining 1/3 cup sugar on high speed until lightened. With mixer on medium speed, gradually add heavy cream in a steady stream; continue beating until mixture is light and airy (mixture will be like a very soft whipped cream).
- 3. Arrange half the cake pieces in the bottom of a 2-quart serving dish. Spoon half the cream-cheese mixture over cake in dollops; spread to sides of dish. Scatter half the blueberries and raspberries on top. Repeat layering with remaining cake, cream-cheese mixture, and berries, piling berries in the center.
- 4. Cover, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
