- Someone asked for this a while ago...
-
- Lemon Poppyseed Cake
-
- 1 package lemon supreme cake mix (Duncan Hines) or similar cake mix
- (I have used a yellow cake mix with fine results)
- 1 small package instant lemon pudding (have used non-instant)
- 2 tbsp poppy seeds (or more!)
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup cooking oil (e.g., canola)
- 1 cup water
-
- Mix all ingredients. Bake in a greased tube pan (Bundt pan) for 50
- minutes at 350 degrees F.
-
- Icing: 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1.5 cups powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)
- Pierce the top of the cake generously and pour the icing on the hot cake.
-
- Note - the icing is very runny (it's not really an icing as much as
- something to soak the cake in), so make sure you have a big plate under
- your cake to collect the drippings. The cake will soak it all up and
- be very, very moist. You can leave the cake in the pan, poke holes in
- the bottom, and pour the icing over the bottom if you prefer. It will
- soak in a more controlled fashion.
