There are many versions of this recipe around. Mine is from my mother, and when she asked what cake I wanted for my 10'th birthday -- Lemon Jello! We've been eating this in my family literally all of my life. This version is great due to the tangy glaze. The glaze makes the lemon zing and it's soooo good.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pkg (small) lemon jello
3/4 c boiling water
1 box yellow cake mix
4 eggs
1/2 c vegetable oil
2 tsp lemon flavoring
GLAZE ICING
1 1/2 c powdered sugar
4 Tbsp lemon juice

Steps:

  • 1. Boil 3/4 cup water and mix it with the 2 packages of jello. Stir until dissolved, and let cool. While jello is cooling, grease tube or Bundt pan.
  • 2. In large bowl, mix cake mix, eggs, oil, and lemon flavoring. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add Jello mixture and mix well. Pour into greased pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
  • 3. Cool cake for 15 -20 minutes, and turn out of pan. Make icing/glaze and ice while cake is warm. Let cool and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. Using fresh lemon juice and zest will give your cake a brighter, more vibrant flavor than using bottled lemon juice or extract.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Use a light and fluffy frosting. A heavy frosting will weigh the cake down and make it less enjoyable to eat.
  • Decorate the cake with lemon slices, zest, or sprinkles. This will add a festive touch and make your cake look even more delicious.

Conclusion:

Lemon jello cake is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is light and fluffy, with a bright lemon flavor. The frosting is light and airy, and the cake is topped with lemon slices, zest, or sprinkles. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
