Bring the great flavor of key lime pie to a wonderful white cake. It's refreshing and fantastic!

Ingredients:
Cake:
1 box Betty Crocker™ SuperMoist™ white cake mix
1-1/4 cups water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 eggs
1/2 cup liquid egg substitute

Key Lime Filling:
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup Key lime juice or regular lime juice
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
4 drops yellow food color
1 drop green food color

Frosting:
1 container (12 oz) Betty Crocker™ Whipped vanilla frosting
2 teaspoons grated lime peel
Garnish, If Desired:
Fresh strawberries
Key lime slices
Lemon leaves

Directions:
• 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with baking spray with flour.

• 2 In large bowl, beat cake ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan.

• 3 Bake 27 to 33 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes. With handle of wooden spoon (1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter), poke holes almost to bottom of cake every 1/2 inch, wiping spoon handle occasionally to reduce sticking.

• 4 In medium bowl, stir together filling ingredients (mixture will thicken). Pour over cake; spread evenly over surface, working back and forth to fill holes. (Some filling should remain on top of cake.) Refrigerate 1 hour.

• 5 Spread frosting over cake; sprinkle with lime peel. Garnish as desired. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.
