For a more intense lime flavor, add the zest of 1 lime to the batter. To prevent the peanuts from sinking to the bottom, toss them lightly in flour before sprinkling them on top of the cake. This cake is best enjoyed within 2-3 days of baking, stored in an airtight container at room temperature. Try using brown butter for a nutty flavor.
