This is a moist, delicious cake that gets rave reviews everywhere I take it! I've been asked if there can be substitutions for the pudding flavor and the answer is YES! You can substitute vanilla or lemon for the cheesecake pudding, though I would lean toward the vanilla....I'm not a big fan of the lemon flavored pudding!

This cake is lemon-y goodness. Lemon is a BIG favorite of mine, and to start my day off with a piece of this is a nice treat to me!
