This impressive-looking dessert is surprisingly simple to prepare. Light and refreshing, it's a super make-ahead treat- the flavor gets getter as it sits in the refrigerator. I've had many requests for the recipe. Ingredients:
1 package butter recipe golden cake mix (regular size) |
3 eggs |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
7 tablespoons water |
3 tablespoons lime juice |
filling: |
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk |
1/2 cup lime juice |
2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped |
lime slices, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, butter, water and lime juice; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
2. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
3. In a large bowl, combine milk and lime juice. Fold in whipped cream. Cut each cake horizontally into two layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate; top with 1-1/4 cups filling. Repeat layers twice. Top with the remaining cake layer. Frost the top of cake with remaining filling.
4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve with lime slices if desired. Yield: 10-14 servings.
