Thanks, Ms Emma, for posting this delicious recipe. I make a similar cake, using either yellow cake mix or lemon cake mix. Also, I use apricot nectar in place of the water. My recipe calls for 4 eggs,(beat the whites separately and fold in). I bake mine in a tube pan for 45 minutes, and use 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar and juice/zest of 1 lemon for the glaze.

Made this last weekend for the family, and it was a big hit (lemon recipes usually are)! I used a lemon cake mix instead of a yellow cake mix. I had a few Meyer lemons to be used up, so that's what I used for the glaze, along with a shot of limoncello that has been lurking in the fridge for some time. Thanks for posting!
