Subtle yet distinctive, the difference between Key Lime juice and regular lime juice comes through in this delicious cake. Because of its pale green color, this cake resembles a lemon cake...unless you add a few drops of green food color to the cake or glaze! The recipe came from a local paper years ago. My mile high altitude requires a longer cooking time, so you may have to adjust the timing on this.
Ingredients:
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box lemon cake mix
1 (3 1/2 ounce) box instant lemon pudding mix
4 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup key lime juice (nellie's and joe's)
key lime juice, is available in most supermarkets along with the juice

2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1/4 cup key lime juice
