How to Make Donna's Lemon Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a bundt pan generously.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 3 oz (85g) lemon-flavored gelatin in ¾ cup (175ml) of boiling water. Let cool completely to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz/432g) yellow cake mix, the cooled lemon gelatin, 1 tablespoon lemon extract, 4 large eggs, and 1 cup (240ml) vegetable oil. Beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes until well combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, use a toothpick or skewer to poke holes all over the cake. Pour your favorite lemon frosting over the cake while it's still slightly warm to allow for maximum absorption.
