Lemon Lime Cake

Lemon Lime Cake

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter

2 eggs

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

1 tablespoon lime zest

1 tablespoon lemon zest

1 1/2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 cup milk

3 tablespoons lemon and/or lime juice (I juiced the lemon and lime into the same bowl and got 3 tbsp)

Lime Whipped Cream

1 pint cold whipping cream

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoons lime zest

3 tablespoons powdered sugar

In the bowl of an electric mixer, add cream, vanilla, sugar and lime zest. Best until cream stiffens, about 5-6 minutes. 

Preheat oven to 350.

1. Cream butter, sugar, and eggs together until fluffy. Add vanilla and zest and combine until mixed.
2. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Add the lemon and lime juice and thoroughly mix. Once mixed, add milk and beat until combined.
3. Pour into an 8×8 or 9×9 square cake pan and bake for 30-35 mins at 350. Let cool completely.
4. Frost cake and refrigerate. I used a pastry bag and tip to frost.

Enjoy and Have fun Baking!!!
