Method

Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Prepare Baking Dish

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour the batter into the dish, spreading it evenly.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Cream Cheese Filling

    In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated.

  2. 6

    Add Lemon Flavor

    Mix in the lemon juice and lemon zest until the filling is smooth and creamy.

  3. 7

    Layer Filling

    Spread the cream cheese filling over the base mixture in the baking dish, smoothing it out evenly.

Baking and Topping

  1. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  2. 9

    Cool and Top

    Allow the dish to cool for at least 10 minutes. Top with fresh berries and garnish with mint leaves as desired.
