Once everything is mixed, pour cake batter into greased 12 cup bundt pan. Bake for 1 hour and 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove cake and place on cooling rack for an hour or until it is completely cooled.
For the Glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. If it is too runny, add a bit more sugar or if it is too thick, add a little bit more lemon juice. Drizzle on top of cooled cake. |
