Strawberry Margarita Cake

I haven't blogged anything in such a long time.  Still making birthday cakes for coworkers based on their likes or wishes.  This one was for someone who likes strawberry margaritas.  Not a big fan of using cake mixes, but sometimes that's what it takes.  This is such an easy cake, but everyone seemed to like it.

STRAWBERRY MARGARITA CAKE

1 box white cake mix
3 egg whites
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup oil
3/4 cup frozen strawberry margarita mix (thawed)
2 tablespoons lime zest
1 16 oz. container Cool Whip

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour 9 x 13 cake pan.

Mix cake mix, egg whites, water, oil, and margarita mix.  Mix until smooth.  Pour batter into prepared pan.  Bake 25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean from center of cake.  Cool cake.

Mix lime zest into Cool Whip.  Frost cake.  Decorate with strawberry slices and lime wedges and some grated lime zest.  Put in fridge for several hours or overnight before serving.
