Time 2h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (18.25 ounce) package lemon cake mix
1 (3 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
½ cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 cup peach nectar
½ cup vegetable oil
2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
¼ cup peach nectar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Grease and flour a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®).
  • Beat lemon cake mix, lemon pudding mix, white sugar, eggs, 1 cup peach nectar, and vegetable oil in a bowl with electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • Pour batter into prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until top of cake springs back when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
  • Cool cake in the pan for 15 minutes before removing cake to finish cooling on rack.
  • Mix confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup peach nectar, lemon juice, and lemon peel in a bowl to make a smooth frosting.
  • Place cake on a serving platter; poke holes in top of the cake with a fork. Pour frosting slowly over the cake, allowing frosting to soak into the holes and drizzle down the sides of the cake.
