You just gotta love this weather! We began our morning going to watch Jaden, (our 8 yr old grandson) play football. Took a Starbucks with us and wrapped up in a blanket with Jodi, (our daughter). After the game, which we will not say who won, we all went to Scottie P’s for hamburgers. Then Randy and I ran around all afternoon buying more containers for more food items which we will sell next weekend. We bought another cake pan which had a recipe for Margarita Cake. It must be Baptist Margarita Cake, because it contains no liquor………it sounds so good, thought I would share it. I know it doesn’t sound very “fallish” but with our weather, it could be sporting in the 90’s again by the end of the week. So here goes,
1 package white cake mix (I don’t know if I have shared this with you already, but I tend to always get the french vanilla by Duncan Hines, as it has such a great flavor, more than just the plain white)
1 can (10 oz) frozen margarita mix, thawed and undiluted
3 egg whites
2 tables vegetable oil
3 tables finely chopped lime zest, divided
1 cup powdered sugar
lime juice, as desired
Mix all ingredients except powdered sugar and lime juice. Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into a fluted tub pan which you have sprayed with Pam or greased. Put into a preheated 350 degree oven. Bake at 40-45 min. Cool in pan for 15 min. Remove from pan and cool completely. In small bowl, combine powdered sugar and 1 table lime zest and enough lime juice to make a glaze. Pour over cake…..serve with Cool whip……..
