Lemon Cake With Cream Cheese Icing
- 1 box (18.25 Oz. Box) Betty Crocker Lemon Cake Mix
- 1 box (small 3.4 Oz. Box) Jello Instant Pudding Vanilla
- 1 box (small 3.4 Oz. Box) Jello Instant Pudding Lemon
- 1-1/2 cup Oil
- 3 whole Eggs
- 3/4 cups Water
- _____
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
- 4 Tablespoons Butter, Softened
- 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
- _____
- FOR THE ICING:
- 3 cups Powdered Sugar
- 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
- 1 stick Butter
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
- Half-and-Half, If Needed
- Mix dry ingredients first, then add oil, eggs, and water. Mix until smooth. Pour into two 9-inch round pans. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
- For the filling, cream the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add vanilla and powdered sugar. You want this mixture to be thick.
- For the icing, follow the same process but add more powdered sugar; it is too stiff, add a little half-and-half. Go lightly with this-you don't want the icing to be runny. I then grate some lemon zest on top. If needed, add more powdered sugar to the icing. It just depends on how sweet you want it.
- Enjoy.
