Ingredients

1 box of lemon cake mix

1 small box of lemon pudding

1 cup of water

1 cup oil

4 eggs

2 tbsp key lime juice

green food coloring –optional-

GLAZE

2 cups confectioners sugar

1/3 cup key lime juice

to switch things up or give it a different kick. Replace key lime juice with non alcohol margarita mix.

Blend together adding more or less sugar to thin glaze.

9x13 pan

something to grease pan with.

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING / ICING

1 stick or margarine, melted or butter

1 8 oz pkg of cream cheese room temperature

1 box confectioner’s sugar

1 tsp key lime juice.

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS

Fine crushed graham crackers

Lime Zest I prefer organic for this

Directions

Place cake mix into mixing bowl mix slowly for one minute. Add

water and oil continuing to mix slowly.

Add room temp eggs one at a time and mixing well before adding

another.

Add lime juice slowly. If making this cake for St. Patrick’s Day or you just want that lime hue. Add a few drops at a time until you get the desired shade.

Place mixed batter into a greased floured 9x13 pan. Baking at 350 for 50 minutes, Or until cake tests done.

When cake is done and while cake is still warm. Maybe out of the oven 5 to 10 minutes. Pour glaze over cake.

Leaving cake in pan frost with cream cheese icing.

Combine ingredients. Blend to make creamy and smooth. I start by using only half a box of powdered sugar until you get the desired sweetness you are looking for. I also add more or less lime juice until I get the right tasting balance.

Oh thanks for the comments. This cake has been a repeat treat at work. Someone found it a clipped it from a paper and gave it to me. We tried it and plotted how to make it better or at least different. Hence the crackers and lime zest.
