I don't usually bake with box cake, but I got lazy and it turned out amazing, so I decided to share. I used Duncan Hines® Creamy Homestyle Lemon Supreme Frosting the first time I made this, but I usually make my own glaze or frosting to go with this cake.

SUPER MOIST LEMON CAKE-CONNIE'S



Super Moist Lemon Cake-Connie's image

This cake was a major part of family bbq's, picnics, and family events when my children were growing up. My sister-in-law gave me the recipe over 50 years ago and we've been making it ever sense. It's super light and delightful to eat. Plus it is an easy, throw together to go with coffee, as a snack or a dessert. I can't keep it in the house.
