List of Ingredients
1 (14 ounces) box gingerbread cake mix
1 cup chopped walnuts (4 oz)
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup prepared lemon curd
Recipe
Preheat oven to 350.
Grease a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2" jellyroll pan, line it with parchment and grease the parchment.
Prepare gingerbread as directed on the box for a cake.
Stir in the walnuts and spread the batter in the pan.
Bake 10 to 11 minutes or'til a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack.
When the cake is cool, prepare the lemon-cream filling as follows:.
Beat cream cheese in a bowl with a mixer at medium speed until it's smooth.
Add the lemon curd and and beat just'til blended.
(DON'T overmix-- this will make the filling too loose.).
To assemble the cake invert it onto a large cutting board and peel off the parchment.
Cut the cake crosswise into 4 equal rectangles and place 1 rectangle on a platter.
Top with one fourth (a heaping 1/3 cup) of the lemon filling, and repeat with remaining cake rectangles and lemon filling.
If not serving right away cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days.
