    Betty Crocker Super Moist Party Cakes: From Casual to Indulgent - April 2005, #219
    Strawberry Daiquiri Cake

    Cake:
    1 package Betty Crocker Supermoist white cake mix
    3/4 cup water
    1 package (0.14-oz.) strawberry-flavored unsweetened soft drink mix
    1 tablespoon grated lime peel
    3/4 teaspoon rum extract
    1 package (10-oz.) frozen sliced strawberries, thawed, undrained
    3 eggs
    Lime Frosting:
    1 tub (15-oz.) Betty Crocker Pour and Frost vanilla frosting
    2 teaspoons grated lime peel
    Garnish:
    8 fresh whole strawberries

    Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with shortening or spray bottom with cooking spray.

    In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, drink mix (dry), 1 tablespoon lime peel, the rum extract, thawed strawberries and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan.

    Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

    Uncover tub of frosting and remove foil. Microwave frosting on High 20 to 30 seconds or until pourable. Stir in 2 teaspoons grated lime peel. Pour frosting over cake, spread evenly. Store loosely covered at room temperature. Just before serving, cut whole strawberries in half, leaving leaves on.
    Garnish cake with strawberry halves.

    Yields: 15 servings

    Note: You'll want to have 5 limes so you'll have enough grated peel for this recipe. For a whimsical touch of the tropics, insert a paper drink umbrella in each piece of cake.
