Ingredients

For the Cake:

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1 box (3.4 oz) instant lemon pudding mix
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup oil
  • 4 eggs

For the Soaking Syrup:

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  2. Prepare the Cake Batter:
    In a large bowl, beat the eggs using an electric mixer. Add the cake mix, lemon pudding mix, water, and oil. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  3. Bake the Cake:
    Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Make the Soaking Syrup:
    While the cake bakes, mix together the melted butter, lemon juice, water, and powdered sugar in a bowl until smooth.
  5. Soak the Cake:
    Once the cake is done, use a skewer or fork to poke holes all over the top of the warm cake. Pour the soaking syrup evenly over the cake, letting it soak into the holes.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before serving. Enjoy the citrusy, moist goodness!

This magical lemon cake is perfect for lemon lovers—it’s sweet, tangy, and irresistibly soft!
