DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan.
In a large bowl, combine cake mix, gelatin, lemon extract, apricot nectar, eggs and oil. Mix to combine, then beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Pour batter into a 10 inch tube pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
While cake is baking, make the glaze: In a small bowl, combine lemon juice and confectioners sugar; stir until smooth. Remove cake from oven, and with cake still in pan, pour glaze over top of hot cake, tipping pan to allow excess glaze to run down sides of pan. Allow cake to cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.

This is an excellent recipe. I didn't follow the recipe exactly and perhaps if I did, I would've given it five stars. I used lemon pudding instead of lemon gelatin like some reviewers suggested. Also, instead of poking holes in the cake so that the glaze could saturate the cake (like the recipe calls for) I poured it over the top. The change I would make to the recipe would be to poke holes in the cake and pour the glaze into the holes like the recipe calls for. This probably makes it REALLY lemony. Then, I would pour a regular glaze over the cake. This would make it perfect in my book. By the way, for those of you wondering what apricot nectar is, it is apricot juice. You can usually find a can of it in the juice aisle. Libby's makes it and I am sure that others do as well.

You've outdone yourself on this one Pam! Its a lemon-lover's delight. Dense, moist, veeerrry lemony.Has a very course crumb, but the flavor is outstanding. Try this one with an orange cake mix. If you like citrus, you won't be disappointed! Thanks Pam.

This recipe is the "bomb"! I followed the recipe exactly as written and its wonderful. If you don't know what apricot nectar is, it is an apricot puree, much thicker than plain apricot juice. It is usually found in glass bottles..Goya is one brand that I know of. Apricot juice is NOT the same thing.
