Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.

  2. Combine cake mix, water, oil, egg, and applesauce in a large bowl, stir until just moistened. Spread batter into the prepared baking pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes.

  4. While the cake is baking, mix 2/3 cup powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a bowl. Pour glaze over the \"yellowies\" as soon as they come out of the oven. Spread glaze with a rubber spatula and set aside until completely cool and glaze has soaked in, about 30 minutes.

  5. Dust with remaining powdered sugar and cut into 24 bars.

Recipe Note

My daughter named these \"yellowies\" since they're a lot like brownies, only not chocolate.
