Directions
1. Preheat & Prep
-
Preheat your oven to 340°F (170°C).
-
Grease and flour a bundt or round cake pan (8–10 inches) to prevent sticking.
2. Blend the Base
-
In a large bowl, add the eggs, sugar, and cheese. Beat them together using a hand mixer or blender until smooth and creamy.

If using triangle cheese, ensure it’s well blended to avoid clumps. You can also pulse everything in a food processor for an ultra-smooth texture.
3. Incorporate the Liquids
-
Add oil, milk, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Whisk until fully combined.
-
The lemon brings a vibrant tartness that balances beautifully with the soft cheese.
4. Dry Ingredients
-
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir just until combined—avoid over-mixing to keep the batter airy.
5. Mix & Pour
-
Gently lift and fold the batter using an upward motion to allow air into the mix.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release bubbles.
6. Bake to Perfection
-
Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
-
The top should be golden and spring back to the touch.

7. Cool & Decorate
-
Let the cake cool completely before decorating.
-
Drizzle melted milk chocolate over the top, followed by a dark chocolate spider-web swirl.
-
Press crushed almonds, caramel flakes, or toasted coconut around the edges if desired.
Tips & Variations
-
Make it Low-Carb: Swap flour with almond flour or coconut flour and use monk fruit instead of sugar for a keto recipe version.

Add Protein: Add a scoop of vanilla or lemon-flavored whey protein to boost its high-protein snack value.
-
No Cheese? No Problem: Use Greek yogurt or mascarpone if soft cheese isn’t available.
-
Chocolate Twist: Fold in mini chocolate chips or drizzle chocolate inside for a hidden surprise layer.
-
Fruit Layer: Add a thin layer of blueberry compote or lemon curd between two cakes for extra flavor.
