Lemon Cake

My rating:

This is my lemon version of the famous Better Than Sex Cake. I am so pleased with how it turned out; it's delicious! If you like lemon, you'll love this. One thing that's really nice about this recipe too is that after you arrange the 24 lemon "fruit slice candies" you know exactly how to divide into 24 portions. If you cut a piece with more than one candy, you know you've taken too much! Please also look at my recipes for the Cherry-Chocolate, Dreamsicle, Pineapple-Coconut, & Red Velvet versions of this cake!

Ingredients:

1 box Lemon Cake mix
10-oz Diet 7-Up or Sprite
1 egg white
1 (4-serving) box fat-free, sugar-free lemon JELL-O
7oz fat-free sweetened condensed milk
1 container fat-free cool whip
8 lemon "fruit slice" candies, cut into thirds

Directions:

Mix cake mix, egg white and diet soda. Bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes or until toothpick comes out smooth in a greased 9x13 pan. During the last few minutes of baking, put 1 package of JELL-O and condensed milk in a sauce pan and stir on medium low heat until smooth. Take cake out of oven, and poke holes all over the top. Pour JELL-O mixture over warm cake, filling in the holes. Cool completely. Mix 2 tsp. lemon extract with cool whip. Cover cake with cool whip mixture and arrange 24 lemon "fruit slice" pieces on top. Put in fridge until ready to serve.
