Ingredients:

Serving

1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup molasses
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (about 6 3/4 oz)
2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground cloves
2/3 cup fat-free milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
cooking spray
1/4 cup (2 oz) fat-free cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup (2 oz) 1/3- less-fat cream cheese, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup lemon curd

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.
To prepare cake, place 1/3 cup granulated sugar and butter in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed for 2 minutes or until well combined. Add molasses and egg; beat well.
Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (through cloves) in a medium bowl. Add flour mixture and milk alternately to sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Spoon batter into an 8-inch square pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
To prepare frosting, place cheeses, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar; beat at low speed just until blended (do not overbeat). Spread frosting evenly over top of cake. Top each serving with Lemon Curd.
