Servings: 8

Ingredients

2 cans (21 oz each) key lime pie filling
1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted (no salt)
1 tbsp fresh lime peel, grated (from key limes or regular)

Key Lime Cobbler: Directions

Rub a little butter or spray inside a 4-6 quart slow cooker so nothing sticks.
Dump in the key lime pie filling. Spread it flat for a shiny green bottom.
Shake the dry cake mix evenly on top of the filling. Don’t mix it in—let it stay dry for a crust.
Mix lime peel into melted butter in a small bowl. This adds extra zing.
Drizzle the butter mix slowly over the cake mix. Cover most spots, but dry bits are okay—they’ll cook with steam.
Put on the lid. Cook on HIGH 2-2.5 hours, or LOW 4 hours. Top turns golden, edges brown, green filling bubbles.
Switch to WARM. Let sit 10-15 minutes to thicken a bit.
Scoop out warm—get filling and cake in every bowl!
