Confession. This is not a gourmet recipe. I think you'll agree when you see the ingredients listed below. That being said, it tastes amazingly gourmet and that's why it's here. This is always one of the favorites at dessert parties as the cake is incredibly moist and the glaze has a perfect balance of sweetness and tart lemon. From start to finish in about an hour, this recipe yields about 12 good sized servings. Enjoy!
HELPFUL HINTS
1. You can use any citrus soda drink - just pick your favorite.
2. Be sure to butter and flour the bundt pan well to ensure it releases nicely after baking.
3. Wait until the cake has cooled before applying the glaze or it will be too runny.
