Zubereitung von Lemon Squares With Cream Cheese

**Make the Cake:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
Add 1/2 cup Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute) and 2 large eggs. Beat for 1 minute until combined.
Stir in 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a few drops of yellow food coloring. Beat until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
**Make the Frosting:** In a medium bowl, beat 4 ounces (1/2 package) cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add 1/4 cup Splenda, beating until creamy and smooth.
Stir in 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled cake.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the frosting to set.
