Ingredients

  • 1 box angel food cake mix
  • 1 can (22oz) lemon pie filling
  • Powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray 9x13 pan.
  2. Stir together angel food cake mix and lemon pie filling. Once fully mixed, add to pan and bake 35 minutes until fully cooked and top is lightly browned.
  3. Tilt pan on its side so cake doesn’t collapse while cooling.
  4. Once cool, cut into bars, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Recipe Notes

Lower oven racks so there is plenty of space between the rack and the top of the oven, cake will rise a lot and you don’t want it hitting the top of the oven or the rack above. I don’t tilt the pan while cooling, I tried this once and the cake fell out all over the counter. I am okay with the cake shrinking in size while cooling to make sure I don’t lose half the cake on the counter.
