16-ounce can grapefruit sections, well-drained
Cream-cheese frosting: 16 ounces cream cheese
1 teaspoon each: lemon juice and freshly grated lemon zest 1 cup sifted powdered sugar
6 drops yellow food coloring, or as desired
1. For frosting, beat cream cheese on high speed until light and fluffy. Add lemon juice and zest. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until blended. Add food coloring as desired.
2. Heat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease 9-by-2-inch round cake pan. Line bottom of pan with wax paper. Lightly grease paper.
3. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
