Tunnel Of Lemon Bundt Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Grease and flour 12-cup fluted tube pan or 10-inch tube pan. Beat 8 oz. cream cheese and granulated sugar in medium bowl with mixer until blended. Add egg; mix on low speed just until blended.
• Prepare cake batter as directed on package. Blend in dry pudding mix and lemon zest; pour half into prepared pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture into ring around center of cake batter in pan; cover with remaining cake batter.
• Bake 45 to 50 min. or until toothpick inserted near center of cake comes out clean. Cool cake in pan 10 min. Loosen cake from sides of pan with knife. Invert cake onto wire rack; gently remove pan. Cool cake completely.
• Beat powdered sugar, lemon juice and remaining cream cheese with mixer until blended; drizzle over cake. Let stand until firm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Make the cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and salt with an electric hand mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until fully incorporated before adding the next. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla and beat to combine.
• Add half the flour and beat to combine, then beat in the milk, then add the rest of the flour and beat just until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and make sure any floury spots are incorporated.
• Grease a 10-inch (25-cm) bundt pan with nonstick spray. Spoon the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Gently tap the pan against the counter to release any air bubbles.
• Bake the cake for 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• While the cake is baking, make the lemon glaze: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar and lemon juice. Microwave for 1 minute, stirring halfway through, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside.
• Make the lemon icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice and whisk until smooth.
• After the cake is done baking, let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack set over a baking sheet and remove the bundt pan. Use a knife to loosen the cake around the edges, if needed.
• Use a skewer or fork to poke holes all over the top and sides of the cake. Brush the cake with the lemon glaze. If the glaze drips off, let the cake cool for a few more minutes, then continue brushing on the glaze. Let cool completely, at least 1 hour.
• Pour the icing over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides. Grate lemon zest over the icing. Let the glaze dry completely, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the cake to a serving platter, slice, and serve.
• Enjoy!
