I love lemon cake, so when I found this recipe in our local newspaper, I decided to try it. I've been making it ever since. Whenever I bring it to a potluck supper I always take the recipe along, because someone's sure to ask for it!
Ingredients:
1 package white cake mix (regular size)
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup warm tap water
4 eggs
1 package (3 ounces) lemon gelatin
1 teaspoon lemon extract
tangy citrus glaze:
2/3 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. For cake, combine all ingredients in large bowl. Beat at low speed until moistened, then at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into greased and floured 12-cup tube pan. Bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool 10 minutes, then remove cake and place on wire rack.
2. For glaze, combine ingredients in saucepan; bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes. Place platter under wire rack. Using toothpick, poke holes in top of cake; pour glaze over top and sides. Allow cake to cool completely before cutting. Yield: 8-10 servings.
