Those are the best lime things I’ve made so far (and that are not soup). I’ve been looking for a nice lime cake recipe for a while and this one is really great :)
Just be aware that this recipe makes a huge batch – The last time I made it, I got exactly 100 tiny cupcakes out of it.
I didn’t change anything for the cake itself, but I adapted the frosting to be less sweet … and I added cocoa, because chocolate improves everything. This might actually be my new favourite. Just beat everything together until it’s smooth and then put it on some cake or eat it all by itself:
- 8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 heaping tbsp cocoa (unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup butter (unsalted), at room temperature
- 1 tbsp finely grated lime peel
- 1/2 tbsp vanilla sugar
