How to Make Burst Of Lemon Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) lemon cake mix, 1 (3.4 oz) package instant lemon pudding mix, 4 large eggs, 1 cup water, and 1/2 cup vegetable oil.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 4 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared bundt cake pan.
  5. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: Whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2-3 tablespoons lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Add more lemon juice, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  8. Once the cake is completely cool, prick the top of the cake all over with a skewer.
  9. Pour the glaze evenly over the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  10. Let the glaze set for at least 15 minutes.
  11. Top with whipped cream or ice cream before serving and enjoy!
