Ingredients

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ white cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
4 eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon peel
1 tablespoon finely grated lime peel
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed
Additional finely grated lemon and lime peels, if desired

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
In large bowl, beat Cake Layer ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour in pan.
In another large bowl, mix Lemon-Lime Layer ingredients with whisk until smooth. Evenly pour over top of cake batter in pan; mixture will sink to bottom as you pour over cake batter.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 30 minutes. Refrigerate at least 4 hours to chill. Spread whipped topping over chilled cake. Sprinkle with additional lemon and lime peel if desired. Using a serving spatula and a knife to carefully help slide pieces off, cut into 6 rows by 3 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.
