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.

SERVINGS: 10-14

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling Bake: 20 min. + cooling

Ingredients:

  • 1 package (18-1/4 ounces) butter recipe golden cake mix
  • 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 slice, optional

Directions:

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.
    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.
    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.
    Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve with lime slices if desired. Yield: 10-14 servings. *Editor's Note:This recipe was tested with Duncan Hines Butter Recipe Golden Cake mix.

    We love this cake, I make it all the time, but I use Key Lime juice instead. It reminds us of past vacations.
