How To Make steamed lemon cake

  • Step 1

Cake: Beat together the pound cake mix, and remaining cake ingredients on low speed for 30 seconds; increase speed to medium and beat for 2 to 3 minutes or until well blended and smooth. Spread batter into prepared dish. Cover dish tightly with foil and place in a 5-quart oval slow cooker bowl. Add 4 cups boiling water around soufflé dish. Cover and cook on High for 4 hours.
