Ingredients
  • Key Lime Rum Cake
  • Ingredients:
  • For the Cake:
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp rum
  • 1 Tbsp grated key lime zest
  • 2 tsp key lime juice
  • 1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons key lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons rum

Directions
  1. Preparation:
  2. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Mix together the flour and baking powder. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup butter, 1/2 cup shortening and 2 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated. Stir in 2 tablespoons rum, key lime zest, 2 teaspoons key lime juice, vanilla extract and lemon juice.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  4. In the meantime, make the glaze by combining 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter and 2 tablespoons key lime juice in a small saucepan. Let it boil for a minute or two, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons rum.
  5. Allow the cake to cool in pan 10 minutes. Turn it out onto wire rack. While warm, prick the top of cake in many places with a toothpick. Pour the glaze over the warm cake. Cool completely before serving.
