Poke holes into the cake with a toothpick:
Make the Lemon Glaze:3-4 cups powdered sugar
Lemon juice-- eyeball it. It should make a gravy like consistancy when you mix it into the powdered sugar. I'd guess its about 3/4 cup but I don't measure this one.
Dash of salt (Brings out the sweet)
Water (optional) if its too strong for your liking.
Pour Lemon glaze onto the top while still warm
(let it set for about 5-10 min.):
(let it set for about 5-10 min.):
Should look like this and will turn a bit white-ish
when it cools all the way.

LOOKS GOOD BABYDOLL!
I am a total sucker for anything with lemon in it. Cake mixes are on sale at Macey's Grocery store for .88 cents this week. I will have to go pick one up and give this a try. Looks delicious!
We tried this tonight. it's more like a half cup of lemon juice. You really should measure.
Dear "ANONYMOUS"
I am happy to see you are actively trying the recipes you have found here on our blog.
However, the previous comment you have written is not in the fashion we here at Feeding the Frugal Family like to see. This is a supportive blog for individuals to come to find, try and share recipes and helpful tips. It is a place to positively contribute to our communities and homes.
However, your comment was neither supportive nor was it insightful and helpful. It was inappropriate. If you intended to compose and submit a helpful tip there are a number of other more positive ways in which you may have phrased your comment.
Example: "We tried this recipe in our house tonight and it was a big hit! However, I like my glaze to be a bit thicker and so I chose to only use about a 1/2 cup of lemon juice instead of 3/4 cup and I am happy to say it still turned out wonderfully. Thanks for the recipe!".
This more positive method helps to keep contributors and fans coming back as they feel comfortable posting and responding. It also helps to re-emphasize one of our founding principles, "Remember, every kitchen is different and we highly value and support our differences and specialties. Please feel free to make changes to our recipes to fit the needs of your families and homes."
If you find that you are having difficulty determining whether or not your comment is appropriate consider this...if you are unwilling to proudly display your name next to your comment, the comment probably isn't appropriate!
We, the contributors, have collectively chosen to delete your negative comments in the past. However, at this time we are choosing to allow your comment on this recipe to remain up for a short period of time with this response following so that you may better understand our reasoning for removal....as well as to let others visiting our site know we value their submissions and comments, and we will continue to actively make them feel confident in contributing them here.
