I have been wanting to make this for some time. Yes, it is a boxed cake mix. No, I do not feel bad. It smelled so good while I was baking it. You can find the cake recipe on Better Crocker.com
1 1/2 | cups coarsely crushed pretzels |
1/2 | cup sugar |
1/2 | cup butter or margarine, melted |
1 | box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® white cake mix |
1 1/4 | cups bottled nonalcoholic margarita mix |
1/3 | cup vegetable oil |
1 | tablespoon grated lime peel |
3 | egg whites |
|
|
| Additional grated lime peel, if desired
|
. | Heat oven to 350°F (or 325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with shortening and lightly flour (or spray bottom with baking spray with flour). In medium bowl, mix pretzels, sugar and butter. Sprinkle evenly on bottom of pan; press gently. |
. | In large bowl, beat cake mix, margarita mix, oil, 1 tablespoon lime peel and the egg whites with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over pretzel mixture. |
| Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until light golden brown and top springs back when touched lightly in center. Cool completely, about 2 hours.
The Tequila Lime Frosting Recipe - 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 tbsp milk
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp tequila
- 2+ cups confectioners' sugar
Cream together butter, milk, lime juice, tequila, and 2 cups of confectioners' sugar. Add in more sugar as needed to make frosting stiff, but spreadable.
In my cake, I omit the pretzel crust and just sprinkle the tequila frosting with pink sea salt.
