Hello everyone,
Well my life is getting calmer since I have the kitchen mostly put together. Now I can get back to my favorite hobby BLOGGING...
On Monday we had family visiting from out of town and I baked a cake.
YELLOW JELL-O GLAZE CAKE
This cake has been a family favorite since I found the recipe in a 1971 Grange Cookbook.
In the early 70's my kids loved a couple of pieces packed in their lunch box. I think they might have been selling the extra piece for cash, Hum...
A Cake for Exhausted Cooks.
Simple ingredients and the cake is done in a hour from start to finish.
In the early 70's while the kids were young, ingredients were less expensive. A cake mix,
fresh lemon juice squeezed from my mother's lemon tree. Water and oil.

Fresh eggs from our chickens and a package of lemon jell-0.
A cake that is moist and has a delicious flavor.
So Simple! It's a good thing~

Poking the holes in the cake is easy and adding the lemon glaze is the best!

My grandmother gave me this recipe years ago. It is a family favorite. We make it in a tube cake or Bundt pan though. It presents beautifully, I'll have to try it in an oblong pan.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
