Warm Winter Lemon Cake

photo by:kraft

Gently falling snow, good. Unrelenting icy rain, not so much. Tame winter with a forkful of lemony sunshine in a warm, moist pudding cake with a citrus tang.

What You Need

pkg. (2-layer size) yellow cake mix

pkg. (3.4 oz. each) JELL-O Lemon Flavor Instant Pudding

1/3

cup granulated sugar

cups cold milk

1-1/4

cups water

PREPARE cake batter as directed on package; pour into 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.

The family LOVED this cake, but it sure looked NOTHING like the picture. The majority of the pudding mixture stayed on top. I wonder if I put the pudding on the bottom next time if it would look like the picture?

I made this cake exactly like the recipe and was very good but next time I make it, I will use a lemon supreme cake mix as it didn't have much of a lemon taste

It was gone so quick and was so easy to make, I will certainly keep ingredients on hand to make it whenever again.

The cake was very easy to make. Everyone loved it. When it cools down, it tastes like a lemon coffee cake. Very good to take to a progressive dinner or a picnic. Not just for wintertime. I will definitely make this cake again.

Great recipe, very moist cake, my family loves it. I made this cake for my father because he loves lemon. He only got 2 pieces so I baked another one for him to take home.

I made the cake and the pudding remained on top, unlike the picture where it is on the bottom. Did I do something wrong? I also had to cook it longer than it said. Not very attractive, like the picture.
