This is a recipe that my Great-Grandmother used to make for us all the time. It is a very moist cake with a subtle lemon flavor and is topped with a lemony glaze. You don't really taste the apricot, but it is a delicious cake.
Apricot Nectar Cake
1 pkg. lemon cake mix
1 box lemon jello
1/2 C. sugar
3/4 C. butter - no substitutions
1 C. apricot nectar
4 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the first 5 ingredients together and then add eggs 1 at a time until mixed well. Grease and flour a 13 x 9 pan. Pour batter into pan and bake for 1 hour, or until done. Make sure and check cake after 40 minutes.
Lemon Glaze
1 1/2 C. powdered sugar - double sifted
4 T. lemon juice - fresh and strained
Sift powdered sugar into a bowl and slowly add the lemon juice, mixing well. Pour over cake while hot.
We usually get about 12 servings out of this cake.
