Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F; grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch cake pan.
  2. CAKE: Beat together the cake and pudding mixes, eggs, oil, water, 1/4 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup tequila, and 2 tablespoons triple sec in a large bowl.
  3. Pour cake batter into the pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or whatever your cake mix box recommends; or until the cake is set and tests done (a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean).
  4. Cool cake for 10 minutes before pouring the glaze over top.
  5. GLAZE: While the cake is baking, combine confectioners' sugar and one tablespoon each of tequila, triple sec, and lime juice in a small bowl.
  6. Mix together until smooth.
  7. Pour over warm cake as directed above in the cake instructions.
  8. GARNISHING: While the glaze is still wet, sprinkle the cake with green decorating sugar (this is optional, but highly recommended since it really does dress up the cake- if you choose to top the cake with Cool Whip, powdered sugar, or another frosting, put the sugar on after you frost or dust it).
  9. Serve each piece of cake topped with a gummi worm!
