Ingredients

  • 18 1/2-ounce package yellow cake mix
  • 3 1/2-ounce package instant lemon pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil

Glaze:

  • 4 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons water

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray miniature muffin tins with vegetable oil cooking spray. Combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs and oil and blend well with an electric mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour a small amount of batter, filling each muffin tin half way. Bake for 12 minutes. Turn out onto a tea towel

To make the glaze, sift the sugar into a mixing bowl. Add the lemon juice, zest, oil, and 3 tablespoons water. Mix with a spoon until smooth.

With fingers, dip the cupcakes into the glaze while they're still warm, covering as much of the cake as possible, or spoon the glaze over the warm cupcakes, turning them to completely coat. Place on wire racks with waxed paper underneath to catch any drips. Let the glaze set thoroughly, about 1 hour, before storing in containers with tight-fitting lids.

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These Lemon Blossoms are so amazingly delicious!!!!! The only bit of advice I would add is to bake the cupcakes just a few... minutes longer. I added lime juice to the glaze and it was soo good......EnjoyRead more

    Excellent Mini Lemon Cakes

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These mini cakes were fantstic. The cake was moist, light and it had a lemon taste that was not overhelming. This is a... keeper and I have had several people ask me for the recipe. However, I did have some problems with the reciepe as it was written on this website. First, I made the cake as directed but the batter was very thick. I had to add 1/2 cup of water to the batter mixture and it may have needed more liquid. Secondly, the glaze came out to thick. I had to add an additinal 1/3 cup of lemon juice to get it to the point that I could dip the cake in the glaze. The recipe for the glaze made enough to dip the cakes twice. Finally, I filled the muffin tins almost completely, not half way as suggested in the recipe. Even with the problems with the recipe, I will continue to make this recipe. Read more

    Lemony delicious...

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made these with the hopes that Paula wouldn't let me down and she didn't. These are delicately lemon, and look like you... worked really hard to make them. I didn't dip the whole cake into the glaze, but was very happy with just the top and down maybe 1/3-it made it easier as I held onto the bottom-dipped and dripped then flipped to dry. Even better after they sat overnight in an airtight container. Thank you for the new addition to my Tea Party menu. Sally in AlaskaRead more

    Great Combinations

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I love this recipe. They are always a huge hit anywhere you take them. For the holiday season coming up, instead of using... lemon I thought I would try pumpkin. They turned out amazing. My family and friends were in love. I used pumpkin pudding mix in the recipe. In the glaze I used pumpkin pie spice, and nutmeg. Another option would be to make a caramel icing. ENJOY. LOVE YOUR SHOW PAULA! Read more
