A Very Easy Lemon Cake sounds perfect for a quick and delicious treat! Here’s a super simple recipe for a moist, flavorful lemon cake:
Ingredients:
- 1 box of yellow cake mix (or lemon cake mix if you prefer)
- 1 (3.4 oz) package of instant lemon pudding mix
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (optional, for extra lemon flavor)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, lemon pudding mix, eggs, oil, and water. Stir everything together until fully combined. If you want an extra burst of lemon flavor, you can add the lemon zest at this stage.
- Pour the batter into the pan: Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake the cake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake should be lightly golden on top.
- Cool and serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optional toppings: Once the cake has cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar or drizzle it with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and lemon juice for an extra touch of lemony sweetness!
Enjoy your light and fluffy lemon cake! It’s the perfect dessert for any occasion.
