Key Lime Bundt Cake Food

TRIPLE LIME BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• To make the cake: In a mixer set with the paddle attachment, beat the butter over medium speed until soft and creamy, about 5 minutes. Add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until well mixed and creamy, another 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the egg yolks, add the lime zest and continue to beat until fully incorporated, another 2 minutes or so. Reduce the speed to low, and gently add the all-purpose flour, salt and baking powder. Continue to beat for another couple minutes. The batter should be completely homogeneous and feel a bit dense and heavy.
• Transfer the batter to a large mixing bowl. Rinse the bowl of the mixer well and change the paddle attachment to the whisk attachment. Beat the egg whites on medium-high speed, until they hold stiff peaks, about 4 to 5 minutes. Slowly, incorporate a bit of the whipped-up egg whites into the heavy batter. Repeat with the rest of the egg whites, folding them gently but persistently, until the batter is completely incorporated and seems lighter and puffier. Don't overmix, or you will remove the puff effect from the beaten egg whites.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the sides and bottom of a 14-cup bundt pan and lightly coat with all-purpose flour. Shake out any extra flour. Pour the batter into the prepared mold and bake in the oven about 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown on top, seems beautifully puffed up and a toothpick comes out moist but not wet. Remove from the oven. Let cool for at least 10 minutes.
• To make the lime syrup: Combine the lime juice with the granulated sugar in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat for a couple minutes, just until the sugar has dissolved.
• Run the tip of a knife around the edges of the cake. Place an inverted platter or board on top of the bundt pan. Invert to release the cake. With a toothpick or wooden skewer, poke holes all over its surface, going as deep as the toothpick will go--I poke at least 100 times! Pour half the lime syrup evenly over the cake. Let it absorb for a few minutes. Pour over the rest of the syrup and let it sit for a few minutes, while you make the glaze.
• To make the lime glaze: In a small mixing bowl, using a small whisk or fork, combine the lime juice with the vanilla and confectioners' sugar until thoroughly mixed. With a tablespoon, add half the glaze, one tablespoon at a time, over the cake, slowly so it absorbs and coats the cake. Wait a few minutes and add the rest of the glaze. Let some of the extra glaze slide down the sides, as it will give it a pretty glazed look. Grate some fresh lime zest over the top.
• If there is any leftover, cover so it will remain moist -- it usually becomes more moist after a day or two.

KEY LIME BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• For the Streusel: Preheat oven to 325°F. Pulse graham crackers in a food processor until fine (you should have 1 heaping cup); transfer to a large bowl and whisk in flour, salt, and cinnamon. Add brown sugar; whisk to combine. Using your fingers, work in butter until mixture is evenly moistened (you should have 3 1/4 cups). Brush a 10-to-15-cup Bundt pan with butter; dust with flour, tapping out excess. Sprinkle 1 cup streusel evenly into bottom of pan.
• For the Cake: Beat butter with granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and lime zest on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, to combine. Beat in flour in three additions, alternating with milk and then lime juice, beginning and ending with flour.
• Dollop half of batter over streusel in prepared pan. Sprinkle with 1 cup streusel; top with remaining batter. Spread with a spatula to cover streusel. Gather remaining streusel in your hands and press into large clumps before sprinkling over top to cover.
• Bake until a wooden skewer inserted in center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove cake from oven (leaving oven on) and let cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Turn out of pan onto a small baking sheet or pan large enough to hold cake; let cool 10 minutes.
• For the Syrup: Meanwhile, combine lime juice and granulated sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring, until sugar has dissolved, then continue cooking until thickened slightly, 1 minute. Brush cake all over with syrup, continuing to brush until all of syrup is used and absorbed. Return cake to oven and bake just until syrup is set, 5 minutes.
• For the Glaze: Meanwhile, whisk together confectioners' sugar and lime juice. Immediately after removing cake from oven, use a large spatula to transfer it to rack. Let stand 5 minutes, then brush all over with glaze, dabbing top so as not to displace streusel. Let cool completely before serving. Cake can be stored at room temperature, loosely tented with foil, up to 3 days.

KEY LIME CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease and flour one 9-by-12-by-2-inch cake pan.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix the gelatin, granulated sugar, flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Stir to mix well. Add the oil, orange juice, lemon juice, vanilla, and eggs. Mix until well combined. Pour the batter evenly in the pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Test for doneness by lightly touching the tops or inserting a toothpick. Cool the cake in the pan for 5 minutes then turn out onto a cooling rack.
• For the glaze: While the cake is still hot, mix the lime juice and confectioners' sugar together well. Pierce the cake with a fork to allow the glaze to soak in better and pour it over the cake on the cooling rack. Allow cake to cool completely as you prepare the icing.
• For the icing: Cream the butter and cream cheese. Beat in the confectioners' sugar until mixture is smooth and easy to spread. Spread the icing on the top and sides of the cake.

LIME CAKE FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 8 x 2 inch round pans. I split the layers for four layers to assemble the cake, your could also bake in three 8 x 2 pans. This will give you more lime curd per slice. I used the reverse creaming method for this recipe.
• In the bowl of your mixer combine the cake flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and lime zest.
• In a separate bowl combine eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and lime juice. Blend with a fork.
• Whisk the dry ingredients for 30 seconds to combine. Begin with your mixer on low speed, gradually increasing to medium speed as you add the slices of butter a few pieces at a time. Beat until the dry ingredients are crumbly and moistened by the butter. The look & texture will be similar to coarse sand. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to make sure there is no dry flour.
• Slowly add approximately 1/2 of the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and beat at medium speed for 1 1/2 minutes, the batter will become thick and fluffy. Scrape the bowl and add the remaining egg mixture in 2 additions, beating for 20 seconds after each addition.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes (25 to 30 minutes if you bake in 3 pans) or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool 10 minutes then turn out. Makes 6 1/2 cups of batter, works well for cupcakes.
• In a saucepan over medium heat bring the water and sugar to a boil. Turn the heat to low and stir constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear.
• Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice. Cool. If you want the mixture to be a thicker consistency, cook longer over low heat.
• Brush a small amount of the syrup onto your cake layers before you begin assembling your cake. Apply sparingly so that the cake does not become soggy. We apply while the cakes are still warm but you could also do this at room temp just before assembling. We prefer to use a pastry brush. With lime juice added to the mixture it will last 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator.
• Combine sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan, pour in water. Over medium heat, stir the mixture constantly until it thickens and comes to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, remove the pan from the heat.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into a small bowl containing the egg yolks and stir quickly until combined.
• Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan. Return pan to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, approximately 1 min. The mixture will thicken slightly.
• Remove from heat and stir in the butter, lime juice and lime zest. Cool before using.
