How To Make fresh lemon sheet cake

  • 1
    In mixing bowl add cake mix, pudding mix and combine.
  • 2
    In a large bowl beat eggs, water, oil, buttermilk, lemon juice with the rind and add enough water to the lemon juice/rind, bring to 1/2 of water(this is the recommended water for the cake recipe).
  • 3
    Add wet mixture to dry and mix thoroughly.
  • 4
    BAKE at 350 for 25 minutes. Toothpick inserted will be clean. DO NOT OVER BAKE. This is a very moist cake.
  • 5
    Let cake slightly cool and add icing while hot.
  • 6
    ICING~~2 cups of confectioner's sugar and 1/3 c. FRESH lemons with rasp of 1 Lemon (I used 2 lemons and added enough water to bring up to 1/3 c of liquid). The icing will be thin but not runny. Just enough consistency to pour onto cake--like syrup. Let the icing soak into the cake for at least 30 minutes. It is DELICIOUS while it's still warm.
