Yummy and wonderful recipe! I sprinkled salted cocktail peanuts on top before baking. I love the sweet, lime fluffy-ness of the cake and the crunchy-ness of the peanuts. Perfect for a crunchy, salty, sweet lover like me! Thanks for an easy and great recipe!

This was sooooo yummy! I used the suggestion of an earlier review and added the grated zest for a little more punch because my lime was a little bit small. Very simple to make and such a wonderful result. I will be make this again this weekend. Thankyou Chabear01

Oh this was goooood. I'm so visual, I saw the picture and made mine in a loaf pan as well. This adds about 8-10 minutes to the cooking time. I used light butter and replaced about 1/4 cup of the sugar with Splenda to make this a 2 point treat. The cake itself is much like a pound cake - dense with a soft crumb - with a lovely tanginess from the lime. A definite keeper. Thanks Chabear01!

Delicious cake! Very simple, very quick. I think I'm going to experiment with different types of icings/frostings on this one. I baked it in a loaf pan like pound cake and it turned out great! Left out the peanuts simply because I didn't happen to have any on hand. I love this recipe! Thanks!!
