Some of the other recipes I found use orange juice as well, so maybe you could substitute pineapple for some other liquid (milk in the above recipe).

This one uses oj instead of pj

I use the one from the Cake Mix Doctor. It has a lime curd to go with it that is to die for. My clients love it!
If you would like the receipe, just let me know and I will post it.

sounds delicious!!! POST!!!

How...these sound wonderful. I also would love to have the recipe.

Thanks for sharing that recipe, sounds yummy!!!!

I used one of the ones on this site and the family fought over the leftovers the next day. Raspberry filling with it was good, VERY moist cake. Although I could not get key limes so it was lime juice.

Suela, was the recipe you used by lori_nurse as posted here? I am assuming that the small lemon pudding is a box of unprepared pudding? It's not too clear as the next ingredient listed is applesauce.

Yes it is the "Great key lime cake", and I used unprepared lemon jello.

So Blairsmom, would you substitute pineapple juice for the milk in this recipe? Or will you go ahead and use the milk?

Thanks Suela! Of course I meant to write jello (too many things in my head!!). Has anyone tried this cake with buttercream icing with key lime juice added? Also, would this be a good cake under fondant?

I would like to know how it turns out. I tried Paula Deen's last weekend & it was a complete disaster, but had a wonderful flavor.

OMGosh..Trisha Yearwoods' Key Lime Cake is the freakin' bomb..you gotta try it!!sooooo moist! It uses jello as well...

I use the recipe listed above by Blairsmom, and it's always a huge hit. Be careful, though...when I shared this last year on CC I was informed that the poster didnt know "...what it is, but key lime it ain't!" He pointed out that lime jello and juice don't constitute key lime. Sigh. Any way you look at it, the recipe is a good one, is easy, and people love it. Good luck!

I know I'm a little late to the conversation but this might help anyone interested. I've been using the WASC recipe on CC for years & I get rave reviews, so when I needed a keylime cake, I started there. It was delicious, light,  fluffy, moist & full of lime flavor. The adjustments I made was:

ORIGINAL WASC RECIPE FROM CC

-I used Pillsbury key lime cake mix

-1/2  C water + 1/2 C bottled lime juice

- I soaked my 3 eggs in 1Tbsp vanilla (in original recipe) & the zest of 4 small limes before adding. 

-I added 1/4 tsp baking powder (to offset the neutralization of the lime juice)

I was delicious! I used a raspberry filling & lime curd filling (both recipes on CC) with a white chocolate ganache frosting. 

Enjoy! 

I couldn't edit above comment because I'm on my phone. I wanted to add that I made this recipe twice, once for cupcakes & once for a cake. Both times it came out perfect. I baked at 325 for a little longer. 

Soldiernurse, what kind of frosting do you use for that recipe? I see no frosting recipe but see picture of cake with frosting on it.  thanks

Remnant 333, it looks like the frosting is just keylime juice & confectioners sugar. The link to the full recipe doesn't work though, but that would be my guess.
