Ingredients
  

  • 1 box 16 oz angel food cake mix
  • 1 can 21 oz lemon pie filling

Equipment

  • 9 × 13-inch baking dish; large mixing bowl; spatula; cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 × 13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, stir the dry angel food cake mix and lemon pie filling together until evenly combined and no dry pockets remain. Do not prepare the cake mix according to package directions.
  3. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  4. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and the center looks set.
  5. Cool completely before slicing. For cleaner cuts, chill the cooled pan for 30–60 minutes. Cut into 12 portions.

Notes

Use the dry cake mix directly from the box; do not add package ingredients.
• Baking time may vary slightly by oven and pan. Use the lightly golden top and set center as the doneness cues.
• Cover and refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days.
• Optional serving ideas: powdered sugar, fresh berries, or whipped topping. These are not included in the two-ingredient recipe.
