What You'll Need

  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1 (18.25-ounce) package lemon cake mix, batter prepared according to package directions
  • 1 (7-ounce) jar macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped, divided (see Note)

  3. In a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream 4 to 5 minutes, or until stiff peaks form; beat in sugar until well combined, then frost the sides of the cake and around the filling on top of the cake.
     
  4. Sprinkle with remaining chopped nuts and chill at least 2 hours. Serve, or cover loosely and keep chilled until ready to serve.
