Lemon Cream Bundt Cake

Now that summer is officially here, I thought I’d mix up my traditional baking and make a nice spring cake with this delicious new Lemon Cream Bundt Cake recipe! I’ve made various variations of this recipe on my blog over the years, but this is the first time I’ve used lemon and I PROMISE you won’t be disappointed. This cake is very easy to make and is deliciously soft and moist because of the pudding added into the mixture.

The recipe is fairly simple and incorporates pudding into the cake mix, which makes it incredibly soft and flavorful. Be sure to grease your bundt cake pan very well prior to pouring the batter in or you will lose the war against the pan! I know from experience. See the full recipe below.

My family couldn’t stop raving about how amazing this cake smelled while it was in the oven, so if nothing else…it will entice your guests if you’re looking to create that warm welcoming “fresh baked” smell in your home. My son could hardly wait for me to pull this out of the oven! We let it cool for about 30 minutes, then tipped it out of the cake pan and let it cool some more in the fridge. Once it was completely cool, I iced it and paired it with a cold glass of Lipton Pure Leaf tea and it was the perfect combination of tea and lemony cake goodness!

We added some spring sprinkles for good measure and sat down after dinner to enjoy some delicious cake. It couldn’t be the more perfect ending to a great weekend with my family!

Don’t miss out on this perfect pairing!! And if lemon isn’t your thing, you can mix up the cake mix and pudding combination into anything you prefer…strawberry and vanilla pudding? Strawberry and cheesecake pudding? Vanilla and key lime pudding? The possibilities are endless and paired with a delicious and refreshing Lipton Pure Leaf Tea…you can’t go wrong! Enjoy!
