LEMON CAKE 
1 box Duncan Hines moist deluxe yellow cake mix

Following mixing directions on box. Add:

3 tbsp. lemon juice

Mix well. Take out 1/2 cup batter for icing. Bake in 2 cake pans until done at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Cool.

ICING:

1 1/2 c. sugar
2 tbsp. corn syrup
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. cake batter
3 tbsp. lemon juice

Cook sugar, corn syrup and water until mixture forms a soft ball when dropped in cold water. Remove from heat and add cake batter, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well. Cook 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and add 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Beat with mixer until thick and creamy. Spread on cake. If icing runs off cake, it will harden, so put it back on cake.
