Lemon Creme Pies

Beautiful lemony cakes with a creamy fluffy filling. By Michelle Keith I feel like I just went from Spring to Summer in a week. Maybe because it’s 86°F and it’s already time to break out the flip flops and sundresses? Maybe it’s because I got my first sunburn in months yesterday? Or, maybe it’s the fragrant lemons that have been perfuming my home lately… Print Description Beautiful lemony cakes with a creamy fluffy filling. 1 box yellow cake mix 1 lemon 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar 1 stick softened butter ¼ cup marshmallow cream 1–2 teaspoons milk Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark Prepare cake batter following box instructions EXCEPT replace the water with milk but only half the amount.
