Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

cooking spray with flour
1 cup white sugar
½ cup butter, softened
3 eggs
1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 limes, zested
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup white sugar
⅓ cup lime juice
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon water, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat an 11x7-inch baking pan with cooking spray with flour.
  • Cream sugar and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer. Add eggs, yogurt, and lime juice; mix well. Mix in lime zest. Sift in flour, baking powder, and salt; mix well. Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze by heating sugar and lime juice in a saucepan over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves and becomes a clear liquid, 3 to 5 minutes. Poke holes throughout the top of the cooled cake using the end of a wooden spoon; pour glaze over the cake and let soak in. Continue to let cool.
  • Mix powdered sugar, lime juice, and water together in a bowl for icing and drizzle over the cooled cake.
