Lemon cake recipe

I had a request for the recipe for the cakes shown in my previous post.  This is an old recipe, probably from 1960 or so.  Enjoy!

LEMON JELLO CAKE 

Cake:
3/4 c. oil 
3/4 c. water 
4 eggs 
1 small pkg. lemon Jello 
1 pkg. yellow cake mix 

Stir the dry Jello into the dry cake mix . Beat eggs, oil and water together. Pour liquid mix over dry mix and beat well. Grease and flour pan.  Bake in a sheet cake pan, two 8x8 pans or 6 little loaf pans as I did recently. Bake according to time and temperature on cake mix box.

Glaze: 
2 c. powdered sugar mixed with 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice
Stir together and let stand while cake bakes.  I usually add a bit of lemon zest to the glaze at this point but that wasn't in the original recipe.

When cake is done but while still warm, poke holes all over the cake – a skewer works well for this but so does a small paring knife. Spread the liquid glaze over the warm cake. This will soak in and for the most part you won’t really see it.

Since it is so moist it keeps really well.  The cake freezes very nicely which is a bonus if you don't want a whole big cake all at once.
