We love this moist, refreshing Key Lime Layer Cake and it is so easy to make using a cake mix!

Provided by Melissa Diamond

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 box (15.25) white cake mix ( we used Classic White Duncan Hines)
1 cup (121g) all purpose flour (spoon into cup and level off)
1 cup (200g) sugar
1 teaspoon (5g) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon (3g) salt
zest of 2 limes
1 1/2 sticks (12T)(179g) unsalted butter, melted
4 egg whites (large eggs)
1/4 cup (55g) lime juice (We used Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice)
1 cup (242g) milk
2 Tablespoons (16g) vegetable oil ( we use Canola oil)
3/4 cup (150g) sugar
1/4 cup (30g) cornstarch
1 cup (242g) water
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
2 Tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter
zest of 2 limes
1/4 cup (55g) lime juice (We used Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice)
Two 8 ounce (423g total weight) packages cream cheese, softened. It must be full fat, not
reduced fat or cream cheese in a tub those are too soft.
2 cups (230g) powdered sugar, sift then measure
2 teaspoons (8g) vanilla extract
3 cups (696g) heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour three 8 inch round cake pans.  In the bowl of your mixer and the cake mix, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and zest of 2 limes.  
  • Whisk for 30 seconds to combine.  Add the melted butter, egg whites, lime juice, milk and oil.
  • Mix 1 minute at medium speed, scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl then mix 1 minute more.
  • Divide the batter between three prepared 8 inch round pans.  Bake for approximately 22 to 25 minutes.  Let cool 5 to 10 minutes then turn out of pans. 
  • In a saucepan, add the sugar, cornstarch and water.  Over medium heat, stir the mixture constantly until it thickens and comes to a boil.  Boil for 1 minute, remove from the heat.
  • Spoon about 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into a small bowl containing the egg yolks and stir quickly until combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan.  Return pan to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, approximately 2 minute.  Th mixture will thicken slightly.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, lime juice and lime zest.  Cool before using.
  • Freeze the mixing bowl and whisk attachment or beaters  15 minutes or move before whipping the cream ( 30 minutes if chilling in the refrigerator.
  • Use the whisk attachment for a stand mixer, beaters on your hand mixer.  Beat the cream until stiff peak stage — when you lift the beater and the cream stands straight up forming a peak.  Keep in the refrigerator while completing the next step.
  • In another bowl, combine the cream cheese and  powdered sugar.  Mix until smooth.  Fold this into the whipped cream  Cover and refrigerate.  If you are piping this frosting and it becomes too soft, just refrigerate the piping bag for a short while.
  • A cake frosted with this must be refrigerated.  Before serving your cake, remove from the  refrigerator an hour or two before serving to warm up a bit.

NO-BAKE KEY LIME YOGURT PIE RECIPE - BETTYCROCKER.COM
This cool and creamy custard pie is too good to reserve only for times of indulgence. At least that’s how we feel, and it's the reason we developed this lower-calorie recipe. Its limey flavor comes from the inclusion of juice, zest and one secret shortcut ingredient: Yoplait® Light Thick & Creamy Key lime pie yogurt. Adding in yogurt, along with fat-free cream cheese and Cool Whip lite, helped us recreate the trademark creamy texture and rich flavor of this pie, while avoiding the higher-calorie evaporated milk and whipped cream used in the traditional recipe. The result of these smart swaps is a 200-calorie treat that’s earned approval from well over 100 of your fellow home cooks.
