KEY LIME CAKE


About eight years ago, my husband brought home a recipe for this cake. A wife of one of the men he worked with, brought this cake to them at work, and he LOVED it! Now, I'm not a big fan of strong lemon or lime anything, so I told him I would make one for just for him. Well......eight years later, I made good on that promise! In my defense, I lost the recipe, and recently found it in an old recipe box that was packed up in our shed. If you like lemon and lime, you will LOVE this cake. It is very moist, and full of lemony/lime flavor! Although it's not my favorite, it is really good.

Key Lime Cake:

1 box Duncan Hines Lemon Supreme Cake
1 small package instant lemon pudding mix
4 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup key lime juice

Mix all ingredients for 4 minutes. Bake in a 9x13 greased and floured pan for about 25-27 minutes, at 350 degrees or until toothpick comes out clean. (This is also very pretty baked in a bundt pan!)

GLAZE:

2 cups powdered sugar and 1/3 cup key lime juice. Mix and pour over cake while it is still hot.
