Lemon Drop Cake
- FOR THE CAKE:
- 1 box Lemon cake mix
- 1 box Lemon Jell-O
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 cup oil
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- FOR THE FROSTING:
- 1 (8 oz.) tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1 tub lemon frosting
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees
- Spray 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- MAKE CAKE:
- Combine cake ingredients (cake mix, lemon Jell-O, eggs, water, oil) until combined.
- Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake at 350F degrees for about 30 minutes.
- Oven times vary but cake should spring back to the touch when finished and if you stick a toothpick in the middle of the cake, it should come out clean.
- PREPARE GLAZE: (while cake is baking)
- Combine powdered sugar and lemon juice and whisk until smooth.
- When cake is done, poke cake with a fork. Just poke all over the cake to make lots of holes.
- Then pour glaze onto the cake.
- Spread the glaze out so that it seeps down into the holes.
- The cake needs to cool completely before adding the frosting.
- FROSTING:
- In a medium bowl combine whipped topping and lemon frosting.
- Stir well until completely combined. Then frost cooled cake.
- Cake needs to be kept refrigerated (because of whipped topping) and covered.
- This cake tastes best after it has been in the fridge for a few hours (or even overnight)
