COCONUT POUND CAKE WITH LIME GLAZE
This pound cake is the best! Oven temps will vary, so if the cake is not done after 1 hour and 20 minutes, continue baking in 5-minute intervals. Use fresh, not bottled, lime juice for the glaze. -Jo McFarland, Sterling, Virginia

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar for 5 minutes, add eggs one at a time until completely incorporated and very fluffy. Sift dry ingredients - cake flour, salt, baking soda into a small bowl. In another bowl, combine sour cream, coconut extract, coconut flakes, lime zest, lime juice until smooth. Add 1/3 dry mixture to egg mixture and mix until completely blended. Add 1/2 sour cream mixture, and blend. Continue in this manner until all the flour mixture and all the sour cream mixture have been added to the egg mixture. Pour into pan and bake for 55-60 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit as you make the glaze. Blend the powdered sugar and lime juice until smooth, all lumps removed. Remove the cake from the pan and drizzle the glaze over the top. Let cool completely.
Tips:
- Prep the ingredients: Before you start baking, measure and prep all of the ingredients so that you have everything you need ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any mishaps.
- Use room temperature ingredients: For the best results, use room temperature ingredients whenever possible. This will help the ingredients blend together more smoothly and create a more consistent batter.
- Cream the butter and sugar together: This is an important step that helps to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and fluffier cake. Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time: Adding the eggs one at a time helps to prevent the batter from curdling. Be sure to beat the eggs in well after each addition.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is done baking. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few minutes longer.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and running off the cake.
Conclusion:
This Coconut Lime Pound Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The moist and flavorful cake is topped with a creamy and tangy lime glaze, which adds a refreshing touch. With its tropical flavors and beautiful presentation, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
