Strawberry Lime Cake

Oh My Goodness.  The first thing I want to say is - stop by Hun....What's For Dinner's page....she is awesome and has some amazing food on her page!

I made this way back in February.  Man that feels like a LONG time ago.  I can't believe I am just now sharing it....it was phenomenal!  So delicious and moist and just YUM!

It disappeared so QUICKLY - Wiley Kat and her family were here and whatever survived the night, didn't make it through the rest of the weekend. ;)



Strawberry Lime Cake
What's In It:
1 c butter, softened
1 1/2 c sugar
3 eggs
3 T lime juice, divided
3 limes, zested
2 1/2 c AP flour, divided
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 1/3 c greek yogurt or sour cream*
1 T vanilla
1 1/2 c fresh strawberries, diced
1 c powdered sugar

What To Do With It:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10" bundt pan.

Sift together 2 1/4 c flour, baking soda, salt, and 1/2 the lime zest.  Set aside.

Cream together the sugar and the butter.  Add the eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 T lime juice and vanilla.

Add the yogurt and the flour mixture alternating between the two and mixing just until combined.

Toss the strawberries with the remaining 1/4 c flour.  Then gently mix into the batter.

Pour batter into the bundt pan and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow to cool 10 minutes in the pan and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Whisk together remaining lime juice, zest, and powdered sugar.  Drizzle over the cake.

*I didn't have any yogurt on hand, so I used the sour cream and it was amazing!

  1. looks delicious, I use sour cream in place of part of the butter in my biscuits all the time, taste great and saves on a bit of the calories...
