Cake:
4 eggs
1 1/2 C. butter
2 TBSP lemon Extract
2 1/2 C. sugar
3 C. flour
3/4 C. lemon lime soda (not diet)
Lemon Lime Glaze:
2 C. powdered sugar
2 TBSP lemon extract
2 TBSP limejuice
1-2 TBSP milk, as needed to thin glaze
To Make Cake:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Make sure rack is in the center of oven.
Generously grease and flour a bundt pan. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in large bowl until fluffy and well mixed together, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until well blended after each addition. Beat in lemon extract. Mix in flour alternating with lemon lime soda until blended.
Pour cake mix into bundt pan. Bake for approximately 1 1/2 hrs or until cake is light brown and a skewer comes out clean when stuck in the middle of the cake. Be careful not to over bake. Cool cake for 15 minutes then run a knife around the edges of the pan to loose the cake. Cool completely before covering with glaze.
To Make Lemon Lime Glaze:
Place all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until mixture is smooth. Let stand for 10 minutes. Drizzle over bundt cake. Let stand until glaze sets.
Store cake in a sealed container.
