Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Yellow cake mix
- 1 cup Apricot nectar
- 0.75 cup Vegetable oil
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan to prepare it for the batter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, apricot nectar, vegetable oil, and eggs. Beat the mixture on low speed with an electric mixer for 30 seconds, then increase the speed to medium and beat for an additional 2 minutes until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
While the cake bakes, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack or serving plate. While the cake is still warm, drizzle the lemon glaze generously over the top, allowing it to soak in.
Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. Slice and enjoy!
