Isolation is giving me a lot of time to discover amazing new recipes to make. This recipe was adapted by my friend @atxrecipes (theirs is a blueberry cream cheese bread). They have a million great recipes on their Instagram that I highly recommend.

- zest of 2 lemons
- 1/2 c fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 c sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder

- In a mixing bowl, combine butter, cream cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, eggs, and vanilla – mix until well-incorporated.
- in a small bowl, mix 2 tbs flour with cut up strawberries – each strawberry piece should be coated with flour.
