I COULDN'T RESIST!

All day I have been planning on giving you a tried and true recipe for Apple Pie - hence the "can you smell the Apple Pie?" on Traffic Swarm. But, I just couldn't resist one of my favorite (and generations before me) recipe for Lemon Cake. This isn't the usual lemon cake with lemon frosting. It has a decidedly different presentation and taste which is absolutely Terrrrrrrrific!

LEMON CAKE

1 Lemon Cake Mix (follow directions on the box) BUT THEN -
2 Extra eggs - that means 5 eggs total
1 Small box Lemon Jello
1/2 cup vegetable oil - in addition to what the box calls for.

Pour in 9 x 13 pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.

Bake according to package directions.

Remove from oven and prick all over with fork tines or toothpick.

Mix 1 cup of powdered sugar and juice from one lemon and pour it over the cake. Spread it all around so it seeps into the cake.

Broil for a few minutes (watch it) until very lightly browned.

ENJOY!
