Linda Henderson's Key Lime Cake

1 lemon cake mix
3/4 cup orange juice
4 eggs
1 3-oz lime gelatin mix
1-1/3 cups vegetable oil

Combine cake mix, gelatin, oil, eggs, and orange juice. Pour into three 8 cake pans and bake according to instructions on box. Allow to cool completely, then frost.

Frosting:
1/2 cup butter
1 8-oz pkg cream cheese
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 cups confectioners sugar

In a large bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add lime juice and confectioners sugar. Mix well.

There is a note that says if you use Key lime juice instead of lime juice, it gives it a little something extra.



I used three 9" cake pans and decreased the bake time slightly. For a first time try, it really turned out fantastic!
