Knead the base dough and spread it thinly in a greased tray.
Mix the curd cheese, eggs, sugar, and lemon zest until the filling is smooth.
Spread the curd filling evenly over the base, leaving no empty edges.
Bake the dessert for 30 minutes in a 180°C oven, until the top becomes lightly speckled.
Rest in the tray for 25 minutes and cut into squares.
💡 Tip: Adding a little semolina to the curd mixture reduces weeping when the cake is sliced.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm in square slices.
