Lemon Bundt Cake

Lemon Bundt Cake
from https://www.culinaryhill.com/lemon-bundt-cake/

Cake:
1 pkg lemon cake mix
1 (3.4 oz) package instant lemon pudding
2/3 c water
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/3 c fresh lemon juice
4 large eggs
1 t lemon zest

Glaze
3/4 c powdered sugar
1 T milk
1/2 t vanilla (I always go heavy on vanilla)
1-2 T lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350.  Generously coat large Bundt pan with Baker's Joy spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix and dry pudding.  Add water, oil, lemon juice, eggs, lemon zest; stir to combine.  Pour into prepared pan and bake for 40 minutes.  Cool 15 mins in pan.  Invert onto cooling rack and cool completely.
For glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla.  Add lemon juice until the glaze is thin enough to pour.  Drizzle over cooled cake and let glaze harden for at least 10 minutes.


** Every year when the lemons come off the trees at Grammers' house, we juice a bunch and freeze the juice in cubes to use all year.  But also while there's fresh lemon juice in the house, we make all the lemon recipes.  We made this delicious treat for Grandma Day on Great-Grandma's birthday a few times because chocolate isn't her favorite, but citrus is.  This is a springtime classic.
