LEMON CAKE | |
This cake uses more eggs as well as butter and milk in lieu of fewer eggs, oil, and water as noted on most cake packages. These substitutions, along with adding the vanilla and pudding, will make a boxed cake mix more moist and taste more like a cake made from scratch. CAKE: 1 box yellow cake mix 1 (3.4 oz) box lemon pudding or pie filling 4 eggs 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) melted butter 3/4 cup whole milk 1 tsp. vanilla LEMON ICING: 2 cups powdered sugar zest of 2 lemons 1/2 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice Combine the cake mix, pudding, eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl and mix. Pour the cake batter into a buttered 9x13-inch glass baking dish and bake per the heat and time noted on the cake package. While the cake is baking, zest 2 lemons (avoid the white pith) and juice enough lemons to get 1/2 cup. To make the lemon icing, dissolve the powdered sugar in the lemon juice then add the lemon zest. As soon as the cake is finished baking, use a fork to punch holes in the cake approximately 1/4 to 1/2-inch apart. While it is still hot, spread the lemon icing over the cake. Allow cake to cool thoroughly before serving. Submitted by: DAL |
