lemon surprise cake recipe


i should have posted this earlier! sorry!

here is the recipe from the cake i talked about here. it's really simple. i think levi's mom got it from the back of a cake mix or jello box.

ingredients:

cake:
- 1 package Duncan Hines lemon supreme cake mix
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- 1 package lemon Jello

icing:
- 2 lemons
- 2 cups sifted powdered sugar (i don't have a sifter, so my icing is lumpy)

directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for metal baking pan, 325 degrees for glass or Pyrex.
2. Combine all cake ingredients. Beat for a couple minutes.
3. Pour batter into 9" x 13" greased & floured pan.
4. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
5. While cake cooks, zest & juice both lemons (we like to use LOTS of zest).
6. Combine zest & juice with powdered sugar. Mix well.
7. Remove cake from oven. Punch holes in it with a large fork.
8. Pour icing on top of cake while it's still hot.

Enjoy!

that's all for today. enjoy black friday! be safe out there with all those sale-hungry shoppers!
