BUD’S FAVORITE LEMON CAKE ~ for Type Os

This cake is so lemony it is ONLY for LEMON-LOVERS! It is a winner at every function I’ve brought it to! I’m always asked for the recipe. (NOTE: the 1st recipe below is our favorite.)

1 lemon cake mix (make from scratch with spelt flour to make this a Type-0 recipe)     

1 small (3.4-oz.) pkg. instant lemon pudding
4 eggs                                  

1 stick butter, melted                  

1 cup plus 2 T. water

1 small (6-oz.) can frozen lemonade, thawed
1 cup powdered sugar (click here for Type-O acceptable version for powdered sugar)

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9x13” baking pan. 

In a large bowl combine cake mix, lemon pudding, eggs, butter, and water. Beat well with electric mixer. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until done. DO NOT TURN OFF OVEN. 

While cake is baking, prepare the glaze by sifting the powdered sugar into the thawed lemonade, and mixing well. As soon as the cake is removed from oven, cut into squares, or poke holes, and pour the glaze over the hot cake. Bake an additional 5 minutes.
