Lemon Ice Box Cake Recipe

45 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 12
1 (18-1/4 ounce) Duncan Hines lemon supreme cake mix
1 1/3 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
2 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) whipped topping

Preheat the oven to 350?F. Grease and flour 2 (8 or 9 inch)
round cake pans. Prepare cake by mixing together eggs,
water, and oil with electric mixer. Place batter in pans and
bake 28-30 minutes. Allow cake to cool 15 minutes then
"flip" cakes out of the pans. Allow cake to cool completely.

In a large bowl, blend together, the lemon juice
and 2 cans of condensed milk until thick and smooth.

Reserve 1/2 of this mixture (about 1 1/2 c) to be
used later. Place the remaining mixture between the
cake layer With the remaining mixture, combine it
with the whipped topping- this is to be used as frosting.
Place both the cake and the frosting in the refrigerator
about 30 minutes, this make the frosting easier to work
with.

Frost cake with frosting and place back into refrigerator -
this cakes is even better if kept in the refrigerator overnight.
