- 1 ½ tsp Baking powder

Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
- Grease and line a 23cm / 9 inch square tin.
- Place all the cake ingredients into a mixer or use a hand mixer and mix until well combined.
- Tip into the tin and spread out to the edges and level with a palette knife.
- Bake for about 35 minutes until springs back to touch or an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning onto a rack to cool.
- Make the icing by mixing in enough of the lime juice to make a pourable but not too runny icing (or it will run off the cake).
- Pour onto the cake and allow to spread.
- If you have any more limes you could decorate with some zest.
