7-Up Cake

 

I found this recipe on Pinterest.  This cake was nice and refreshing.  I used zest and I think it made the flavors pop more.  The link to the website is listed. 

 

Ingredients:

1 box yellow cake mix

1 box (4 oz.) instant lemon pudding

¾ cups 7 up (or similar lemon lime soda)

4 eggs

¾ cup vegetable oil

Icing:

2 cups powdered sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1-2 tablespoon milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325F degrees

Spray 10-inch bundt pan with Baker’s Joy or another similar spray.
In a medium bowl, combine all the cake ingredients.  Mix until thoroughly combined.
Pour batter into bundt pan.
Bake for about 45-55 minutes (until inserted toothpick or butter knife comes out clean).
Allow to cool completely, then remove from bundt pan.
Start preparing the icing.
If you're using a fresh lemon, you might like to zest a bit of the lemon for more flavor.
The step is totally optional.
In a small bowl, combine sugar and lemon juice/zest.  Add milk in slowly until you’ve reached

desired consistency.  You may want your icing a bit thicker or more like a glaze.

That part is all up to you

This icing is nice and tangy and brings a nice balance of flavor alongside the sweet cake.

Pour icing over cake.
And serve.  Yumm!!!
