Quick Lemon Cake





Quick Lemon Cake




1 box Lemon cake mix w/ Pudding in the mix.

1 10 oz jar of Smuckers "Simply Fruit" Red Raspberry

2/3 Cup Butter - softened

4 cups(1 box) Powdered sugar

1 teasp grated Lemon peel (optional)

1/4 Cup Lemon juice (can add more as needed)


Prepare cake as directed on the box.

Use 2 8" cake pans.


Let cool slightly then slice each layer in half (to make 4 layers) or can keep whole (makes 2 layers)--I had used 9" cake pans so it was to thin to make more layers.


Brush each layer with a sugar and water mix (to keep crumbs down) and place in the fridge til cooled.


Spread the Red Raspberry fruit on the layers (not the top)


Put layers together and frost.


Frosting:


Beat butter until light & fluffy, add powdered sugar, beating well. Beat in grated lemon peel and enough lemon juice until desires spreading consistency.


Spead on top layer and serve.
