KEY LIME POUND CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 325F.
• Grease and flour a 10 cup Bundt pan, or a 9 to 10-inch tube pan.
• To make the cake, add 1 cup butter and the sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Alternatively, use a large bowl and an electric hand mixer. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add the lime zest and vanilla, then beat again until well combined.
• Sift the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda into a separate bowl.
• Add half of the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar-egg mixture and beat on medium-low speed until just incorporated. Add the sour cream and beat to combine.
• Add the remaining dry ingredients and beat until just combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add the lime juice and beat until just combined.
• Put the cake batter in the prepared Bundt or tube pan, spreading the top level. Bake until the edges are golden brown and a cake tester or thin skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour and 20 minutes.
• Let the cake cool in the pan, about 15 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.
• To make the glaze, combine the confectioners' sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the key lime juice in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. The glaze should be pourable. If the glaze is too thick, add 1 teaspoon at a time to reach the correct consistency.
• Pour the glaze over the cooled cake, covering the top and letting it run down the sides a bit. Garnish with key lime zest or slices, and coconut flakes, if desired. Slice and serve.
