Tips:
- For a smoother filling, use a food processor or blender to combine the cream cheese, sugar, and lime zest. - To make the ribbon effect, spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled cake in a thin layer. Then, use a knife or skewer to swirl the raspberry jam into the cream cheese mixture. - If you don't have a springform pan, you can bake the cake in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly. - For a more intense lime flavor, use freshly squeezed lime juice in the cake batter and the cream cheese filling. - If you don't have any raspberries, you can use another type of berry, such as strawberries or blueberries. - Garnish the cake with fresh lime slices or lime zest before serving.Conclusion:
