I got this recipe from a cookbook that I got in Johnson City, TN. It is a book compiled by Pine Grove United Methodist Church with recipes from the locals. This cake is delicious! I hope you enjoy it. Prep time is approximate.

I'm not a big fan of key lime pie, but this cake was surprisingly good. The lime flavor was subtle and not overpowering, and the cake was very moist. I would definitely make this again.
