Hot Lemon Syrup Soaked Cake

This picture say's it all....this

cake is SUPER moist and full

of luscious Lemon flavor!

You can bake this cake as a full

bundt cake, a 9x13" or as

Mini- bundt cakes as I did.

 

Hot Lemon Syrup Soaked Cake

1 (18.5 oz.) Lemon Cake Mix

1 (3.4 oz.) Instant Lemon Pudding

4 Egg's ~ beaten

1/2 C. Water

1/2 C. Oil or Applesauce

1 (12 oz.) Lemon Lime Soda~*I used Sprite

1/2 C. butter

1 1/2 C. Sugar

1 TBSP. Lemon Juice

1 tsp. Lemon Zest

 

Preheat oven to 350

In a mixing bowl combine the cake

mix, pudding mix, eggs, water, oil

and 1 Cup of the soda pop.

*(reserve remaining soda pop)

Beat ingredients for 3 minutes.

Pour into the desired size/shape

of pan that has been greased.

Bake for 45-55 minutes

or until the cake is cooked through.

While cake is baking you will combine the

remaining soda pop, butter, sugar,

lemon juice and zest in a sauce pan.

Stirring continuously until the sugar

has dissolved, bring to a boil for

2 minutes. Remove from heat.

*If you are making mini or a full

bundt cake you will need to let the

cake cool slightly before removing it

 from the pan to poke holes into the cake,

 and pour the hot syrup over top.

 For a 9 x 13" pan,you can poke holes into

 the warm cake as soon as you take it from the oven.

Then proceed to pour the hot syrup

 evenly over the entire cake.

Let the cake cool completely at room temperature.

Pure Delight!
