Pour into a greased and floured 10"x2" round cake pan. Bake at 350* for 42-44 minutes. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes and then flip onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  To assemble the cake, level both lemon cakes. Place on cake on a plate and smooth on a thin layer of cool whip. Place the cheesecake on top. If the layers don't match up you can use a knife to very carefully remove the sides of the cheesecake to fit. Smooth a thin layer of cool whip frosting on top of the cheesecake. Place the last cake layer on top of the cheesecake. Smooth the Cool Whip frosting over the top and sides of the cake. Decorate with fresh raspberries if desired. Keep refrigerated.
