Lemon Cake to Die For
Ingredients:
1 box 15.25 oz lemon cake mix
1 can 15 oz lemon pie filling
4 large eggs
1 tub 8 oz whipped topping Cool Whip
1 package 8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fresh lemon slices or zest optional, for garnish
Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, combine the lemon cake mix, lemon pie filling, and eggs. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan.
Make the Frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
Frost the Cake: Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese and whipped topping mixture evenly over the top of the cake.
Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with fresh lemon slices or lemon zest. Slice and serve chilled for a refreshing lemony dessert!
