Lemon Cake Bars Ingredients
- Angel Food Cake Mix – I used Betty Crocker Confetti Angel Food Cake Mix
- Lemon Pie Filling
OPTIONAL:
- Powdered Sugar – to top if desired
- Whipped Cream – to top if desired
Equipment needed to make 2-ingredient lemon cake bars
- Cake pan
- Oven

How to Make 2-Ingredient Lemon Cake Bars
Place the Angel Food Cake Mix in a large bowl.
Open the can of Lemon Pie Filling, and add the Pie Filling to the Cake Mix. Stir together until well mixed, and no cake mix is visible. The Batter will be fluffy, and foam up a little.

Pour into a 9×13 dish (un-greased) and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. The Cake will rise above the dish in the oven, but will settle when removed.

When the Cake is done, remove from the oven to a wire rack, and allow to cool completely.
Cut into 3×3 inch squares.
Sprinkle with Powdered Sugar and top with whipped cream if desired.

Serve and Enjoy!
