This mango cake is made with box cake mix and includes fresh mango, topped with a homemade glaze. Serve with whipped cream for an easy, summery dessert!
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.
