Step-by-Step Instructions
To start making my 7up Lemon Cake, I preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare my cake pan by greasing it lightly. In a large mixing bowl, I pour in the lemon cake mix, adding the vegetable oil, 7up soda, eggs, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice. I mix everything together using my electric mixer on medium speed until well combined and smooth. The batter should be light and fluffy! There’s something about the way the ingredients blend together that makes me smile. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
