Lemon Pound Cake
So I was folding laundry the other evening and Keeping up with the Kardashians were on the TV (don't ask) and they were having this controversy over a lemon cake that apparently the family thought was homemade but came from a box. Fast forward a few days later and I see this post on Facebook for the "Famous" Kris Jenner Lemon Cake recipe (from a box) and decided to take a look. I needed to take a cake to work for a holiday lunch and since I love lemon cake I thought why not, it is a super easy recipe. I whipped one up on Saturday to try it out and all I and Guy could say was OMG!!! This is one fantastic cake. I then proceeded to make a second one as we were devouring the first :) Here is the recipe straight from the Duncan Hines website (hahaha):
Ingredients:
1 package Duncan Hines® Signature Lemon Supreme Cake Mix
1 (3.4 oz.) package instant lemon pudding and pie filling
4 large eggs
1 cup water
â…“ cup vegetable oil
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 10-inch Bundt® or tube pan.
Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water and oil in large bowl.
Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into prepared pan (I used a bundt pan)
Bake 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool cake on wire rack for 25 minutes. Remove cake from pan and cool completely.
Dust with sifted confectioner’s sugar.
Baking Tip: Glazed Lemon Pound Cake: Place ½ cup Duncan Hines® Creamy Home- Style Classic Vanilla Frosting in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High 10 to 15 seconds; stir until smooth. Drizzle over cake.
And the cake? It was a huge win at work. Lots of requests for the recipe and no one could believe it was from a box either. Definitely will be a go to when I need a cake for an event!
