My great-grandmother used to make this cake, which has been a family favorite for years. You won’t believe it starts with a cake mix! Lemon pudding and apricot nectar add a tanginess and moistness. It’s delicious plain or served with ice cream or whipped cream.

I followed the directions exactly as listed, and baked for 45 minutes. The cake rose up nice and high during baking, and it turned out nice and light and tender. This is definitely a keeper. I'll definitely make this one again. The tartness in the glaze balances out the sweetness of the cake. My husband loved it. Thank you for the recipe, Gail.
