How to Make Lemon Lava Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare your favorite lemon cake mix according to package directions. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix, 1 cup milk, ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup water, and ¼ cup fresh lemon juice. Whisk for 2 minutes until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Gently pour the pudding mixture evenly over the cake batter in the pan. Do not stir or spread.
- Place the baking pan on a larger baking sheet to catch any drips during baking.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the cake comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes to allow the pudding layer to set slightly.
- Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy warm!
