Ingredients

Glaze

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • ½ lime, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon golden rum (Optional)
  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar

Cake

  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons lime zest

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt).

Step 2
Peel mango with a vegetable peeler or paring knife. Cut flesh into small pieces and squeeze pit for juice. Collect all juice from chopping and squeezing pit and reserve for glaze. Smash mango in a bowl using a potato masher or fork. Measure 1 cup smashed mango, reserving the rest for the glaze.

Step 3
Beat 1 cup smashed mango, cake mix, eggs, water, vegetable oil, and lime zest together in a bowl using an electric mixer for 2 minutes; pour into the prepared pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool cake in pan for 5 minutes. Invert cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 5
For the glaze: Combine melted butter, lime juice, rum, and about 1 tablespoon reserved juice from mango in a bowl. Stir confectioners' sugar into butter mixture until desired consistency is reached; fold smashed mango into glaze. Spoon glaze over cooled cake.

Tips

You can also puree mango in the blender or food processor.
