Instructions
- Mix the key lime juice into the powdered sugar a little bit at a time. Add key lime juice just until the powdered sugar is wet.
- Dip the bottom of the doughnuts into the key lime glaze. If the doughnuts are not frosted on the tops, give it an extra punch of flavor by dipping the tops too!
- Place doughnuts on parchment paper. Melt the cream cheese frosting just so it's fluid so you can drizzle it. Drizzle the cream cheese frosting across the doughnuts with a fork or spoon.
- Sprinkle the key lime zest on top of the doughnuts.

You can substitute regular lime for key limes, but the key limes give this recipe a punchier flavor!
