I've made this cake regularly & it's ALWAYS been a hit especially at work!!!! Simple & quick to whip-up!!!! I too poke holes in it and drizzle a lemon juice & confectioner's sugar syrup on the cake to soak in and stay moist. Yummy!!!!

Add dissolved lemon gelatin mix to cake batter instead of pudding and add lemon zest to taste. Gives a wonderful lemony zing! Add lemon juice/confectioners sugar mixture to cake by poking holes. Sprinkle confectioners sugar over cake to finish. Always a favorite!

Agreed. My "go to" cake all the time for desserts at home and take away. Always get wonderful compliments. Topped with chocolate frosting...is a favorite combination.

This is one of my Go To cakes. I make it often. I add poppy seeds to the batter and make a lemon-cream cheese drizzle.

This is by far the best lemon cake. Everyone loves it. One slice is not enough, you'll want to have seconds and thirds. My only tweek is that I add 1tsp of pure lemon extract. If you want a very lemony taste, add, if not, leave recipe as is.

This has been one of those "tried & true" recipes that I had made many (at least 25 years ago) and forgot about. Then recently a friend asked me about that "cake that you used to make". Oh my God, it's still one of the best and easiest!

My family love this cake! But for the glaze I squeeze a 1/2 lemon and add some lemon zest for extra tartness

This is the cake everyone wants me to make. My secret switches are use sugar instead of flour for the pan prep. And substitute 1 cup Realemon juice for the water.
