Instructions
Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Lightly grease your 8 x 8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Layer the Lemon Curd
Spread the lemon curd evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.
Add the Cake Mix
Sprinkle the dry lemon cake mix evenly over the pie filling. Try to cover as much of the filling as possible.
Drizzle with Butter
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop. Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, covering as much of it as possible. This helps the cake mix absorb the butter, which results in a better texture.
Bake
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Cool and Serve
Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving. If desired, dust with powdered sugar or serve with a dollop of ice cream for a little extra sweetness and a nice finishing touch.
