someone gives you lemons.....make lemon cake...or cupcakes...or both

This lemon cake recipe is so simple but is amazing! My mom made it growing up and its the one cake that my husband will eat...he is missing his sweet tooth becuase he can say no to sugar like no one I've ever met. It is the most moist cake that packs a very lemony punch....if you like lemon you will love this cake and its so simple to make!
I made this cake twice in the past week..once for a bridal shower cupcake order and as a cake for husbands birthday.

Very Lemon Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
1 small packet lemon jello
4 eggs
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Mix all ingredients and bake according to the box, either 9x13, cupcakes or rounds.

After you remove the cake from the oven let it cool and poke holes all over the top with a toothpick. Then make the
Glaze:
zest from one lemon
juice from one lemon
1-2 cups powder sugar


Mix the lemon zest, juice and sugar a 1/2 cup at a time until you have a "pourable" consistency. Then pour the glaze over the entire cake and let settle before you serve. If you are making cupcakes follow the same steps and if you would like you can top with the frosting of your choice.
These are the cupcakes for the shower all ready to go!
