Lime Cream Torte Recipe image

This impressive-looking dessert is surprisingly simple to prepare. Light and refreshing, it's a super make-ahead treat- the flavor gets getter as it sits in the refrigerator. I've had many requests for the recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 package butter recipe golden cake mix (regular size)
3 eggs
1/2 cup butter, softened
7 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons lime juice
FILLING:
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lime juice
2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped
Lime slices, optional

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, butter, water and lime juice; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
  • Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve with lime slices if desired.
  • Yield: 10-14 servings.
