Mom’s Best Lemon Cake
One of my favorite childhood memories is my Mom’s Lemon Cake. And like many vintage recipes, a shortcut using boxed cake mix and pudding mix helps it come together in no time! A little gooey and a little lemony deliciousness, I hope this becomes one of your favorites too!

Ingredients
For Cake:
Water
For Glaze:
Hot Water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat eggs lightly in large bowl. Add remaining cake ingredients and mix with hand mixer until just combined. Use bundt pan*, well oiled. If you don’t have a bundt pan, a 9 x 18 rectangular cake pan will work. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Set aside.
- Towards the end of the cooking time, make the glaze. Mix all.
- If you use a bundt pan*, turn out onto serving platter. Use a skewer and poke holes in the cake, about halfway down. Pour glaze overall, garnish with remaining zest and serve!
Chef's Notes
*If you use a rectangular cake pan, leave in the pan, glaze, and serve from the pan.
