    First of all, I'm far from a good cook (but I do try. This recipe was very easy to follow. I took some advice from other reviews and added lime and lemon zest to the cake. It made the cake a bit more tart and more keylime-like. I was so happy when the cake (that I made for someones birthday was so very well received. Thank you Trisha and the Food Network:

    Note: Should anyone question the amount of oil (1.5 cups, it has been verified and is correct. It is a very moist cake. :

    Made this for a co-workers birthday. He loves key lime pie. The work bunch scarfed it up. It was gone before 10:00 am. I added 1/2 the oil, as many of the reviews said to cut back on it. I might add a little more next time. It was so easy, which I was worried about since I made it late last night. Also, it needs the sweet frosting because it's a very tart cake. I usually flavor my cream cheese frosting with vanilla, but didn't this time (following the recipe, and it was really just perfect. Next time, I'm also thinking about making it in a jelly roll pan.

    I believe 1 1/2 cups of oil is way too much oil! My cake was so heavy and sunk in the middle. Was not fluffy or cakelike. Could probably use it for a boat anchor!

    This cake was delicious and so easy to make. I garnished it with thinly sliced limes and everyone loved it. Next time I will add lime zest to the frosting but that's the only thing I would change. Great recipe!

    This was amazing, I took it to work for a potluck our department had, I made one recipe as the orignal and one as i call the "not so fluffy" version. I hope you dont mind but i subsituted apple sauce for the oil and 3/4 cup honey flavor greek yogurt. I have found any cakes cupcakes turn out so well and moist and i use egg substitue as well and sugar free lime jello. I did cheat because of time and used white cake mix. But no one could tell except the "not so fluffy" cake was light and not as dense. I use low fat cream cheese as well.

    Thank you so much I love watching you, have been a fan for years and we are getting to see a side of you no one ever gets to see, thank you again its a breath of fresh air

    Trisha stole my line on her show when she said "I'd eat cardboard if it had cream cheese frosting." But this cake is anything BUT cardboard. Moist, tangy, sweet, and so pretty. Made 2 this past weekend (Mama's birthday & a funeral luncheon and got RAVE reviews both times. People LOVE this cake. I will try decreasing the oil next time, and if you do layers, you definitely need to increase frosting by half or even double it. Am going to try to add chopped pecans in the frosting because I LOVE cream cheese frosting! This has definitely become my "go-to" summer dessert.
