Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons grated key lime zest
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup key lime juice

Steps:

  • Cream together the butter or margarine and 3/4 cup sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Separate the eggs. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, and add the key lime zest.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add these dry ingredients to the egg butter mixture, alternating with 1/2 cup key lime juice.
  • Beat the egg whites until stiff, and fold into the batter.
  • Pour batter into a well greased 10 inch Bundt pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), or until cake tests done. Cool cake for 10 minutes in pan, and then invert onto cooling rack.
  • To Make Key Lime Glaze: Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup key lime juice. Simmer over medium low heat until a light syrup forms; this should take approximately 5 minutes. Use glaze immediately. Pour over still warm cake.

This cake was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as I expected. The cake was a little dry, and the filling was too runny. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The cake was easy to make, and the instructions were clear. However, the filling was a little too runny for my taste. I think I'll try using a cornstarch slurry next time to thicken it up.
