Directions
Key West Key Lime Cake,This recipe comes from Key Lime Cookin’ by Joyce LaFray. Key limes are smaller and sweeter than regular limes. If you can’t find key limes or key lime juice you may sub regular limes.,I made this one for Easter 2020. All I could find was a French Vanilla cake mix, because of the Corona most all cake mixes were gone. Cake mixes today are only 15.25 oz. so I added a recipe of Cake Mix Extender I found on this website. It made two 9″ layers. It didn’t rise very much, but cooked up nice and flat, making it easy to frost. I substituted milk for the water to make richer cake. It took about 32 minutes to bake. Before I frosted it, I poked holes and drizzled each layer with 1 TBSP of key lime juice. I also added 2 TBSP juice to the frosting, and added curd between the layers. That’s right! No cake to rich for me! It was fabulous.,Where do you get lime curd that is talked about in this recipe? Thanks
