Kris Jenner is skilled in many different areas. While we all know that she can negotiate business deals, schedule photo shoots, and do major damage control for the Kardashian-Jenner siblings, it just so happens that Jenner also knows a thing or two about cooking.

The momager has quite a few recipes she’s been whipping up for years and has even written a cookbook titled In the Kitchen with Kris highlighting some of her favorites. One of her specialties — and most talked-about dishes — is her famous lemon cake, which may be super easy but is an oh-so-delicious dessert.

Kris Jenner’s lemon cake is a staple in the Kar-Jenner family

Though the Kardashian Jenners are known for their stunning figures and eating well-balanced diets, they still like to indulge in sweets every now and again.

Over the years, the reality stars haven’t shied away from expressing their love of desserts and other foods that satisfy their sweet tooth. Jenner, especially, is fond of sweet treats and even has a go-to cake she bakes when the occasion calls for it.

For decades, the famed momager has been making her famous lemon cake as a holiday dessert staple. Though she is the only one who makes the cake in the family, Jenner previously showed Khloé Kardashian — and Keeping Up With the Kardashians viewers — how she bakes her famous dessert.

During a past episode of the KUWTK, Jenner and Kardashian competed in a bake-off. As the baking was taking place, it was revealed that Jenner’s famous lemon cake, which everyone thought she made from scratch, is actually out of a box.

Since Jenner is a busy woman, she doesn’t have the time to make the batter herself. So instead, she opts for Duncan Hines boxed cake mix to make the process quick and convenient.

The reality star also adds fresh lemon juice and her secret ingredient… lemon Jell-O pudding mix, to give her cake a delightful tang.

Kris Jenner recently designed a new spatula in partnership with No Kid Hungry

Since the entire Kardashian Jenner family — even the queen of healthy eating Kourtney Kardashian — always rave over the momager’s cake, it must be super delicious. But much to our dismay, it’s unlikely we’ll ever get a chance to try a lemon cake made by the one and only Kardashian matriarch.

However, you can still snag the full recipe and recreate Jenner’s iconic lemon cake for your next family gathering — or whenever you just want to indulge in something sweet. 

There’s even a special Kris Jenner-approved cooking tool you can use that will definitely get you in the baking mood.
