Ingredients

1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
0.75 cup water
0.5 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs eggs
0.33 cup lemon juice
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking pan by greasing and flouring it.
For the cake: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix and instant pudding. Incorporate water, oil, and eggs, mixing until the batter is smooth and thoroughly blended. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. While the cake is still hot, use a fork to poke holes across the top.
Prepare the sweet lemon glaze by mixing lemon juice and confectioners' sugar in a small bowl until smooth. Pour the glaze over the hot cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. Ensure the cake cools completely before serving.
