I made this for my family a few weeks back and would have to say that it was just okay. Unfortunately most of the cake went to the trash, just wasn't great. something was missing.

My family loves this cake! I bake the cake with the egg white directions. Then so it's not overly sweet, I use Cool Whip as a frosting. When it's chilled it's a very refreshing warm weather dessert...making it this weekend!

This cake was excellent! I made it for my family and we all liked it. We love key lime pie, and this was a nice twist on that recipe and is not as rich as your traditional key lime pie. I will be sharing this recipe with family and friends.

Crowd pleasing favorite! This is so light and refreshing on those hot summer days. I use cool whip instead of frosting but it still hits the sweet tooth... even in children. To get clean holes in a warm cake, allow the spoon handle to sit in hot water first.

I decided to follow the recipe as it is written. The 4 eggs did not turn the cake mix yellow as I thought it might. Only thing I will do different is just top it with lite cool whip instead of the canned icing, have to save calories and fat somewhere. Thanks.

I am anxious to make this cake. However, I am confused about the directions. The box says to use 3 egg whites and the recipe here says to use 4 eggs. If that were the case, the cake would end up being yellow. Maybe they mean 4 egg whites, I don't know. Will someone please clarify this for me!

OK....To add to my below review. I NEVER used "key limes"...I just used regular green limes or lemon so I don't know if this would turn out the same with 1 1/2 C key lime juice.

OK...I have made this several times and I FINALLY have it down and it's perfect. I follow the cake steps as shown except I don't bother with spraying the pan NOT NEEDED. While the cake is baking I mix 1 14oz can low fat/sugar condensed milk with 1 1/2 cup lime or lemon juice. YES I said 1 1/2 CUP. I don't bother with the 3/4 C whip cream, grated peel or food coloring. I set this in the frig while the cake is cooking. When the cake is done I let it set for a good 5-10 min to slightly cool then poke the holes. I then get the filling out of the frig and pour it over the cake and then back in the frig to set up and finish cooling. When completely cool top the cake with 1 8oz container of "lite" whip cream over the top. It's quick, light, low/lower in calorie/fat, it's tart refreshing and great.
