Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

FOR CAKE
1 box Pillsbury yellow cake mix
1/3 c canola oil
1 c water
3 large eggs
1 box lemon Jell-O instant pudding mix (small box, 3 oz.)
FOR ICING
1/4 c orange juice frozen concentrate
1 c powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Add cake mix, pudding mix, oil, water, and eggs to a large mixing bowl or stand up mixer.
  • 2. Using the paddle attachment mix on low until combined. Then mix for 4 minutes.
  • 3. Grease a Bundt pan with shortening then flour the pan, being careful to shake out the remainder of the flour. I use plain sugar to flour my pans and the cakes pop out great.
  • 4. Next, scrape cake batter from mixing bowl into the bundt pan. Smooth out the top and bake at 350 degrees for 33-36 minutes.
  • 5. My oven runs cold so check your oven at 25-30 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean.
  • 6. Cool the cake for 10 minutes then turn it out onto a cake plate.
  • 7. After the cake has cooled prepare the icing. Mix the powdered sugar, orange juice concentrate, and vanilla to make a nice orange drizzle.
  • 8. Drizzle cake with orange icing. Let the icing set completely before serving. Don't serve this cake without this icing, it just makes this cake all the more enticing and delicious!

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a less sweet glaze.

This cake was a bit dry, but the flavor was still good. I think I might have needed to add more butter or oil to the batter.

This cake is a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would prefer a lighter, more fluffy texture.
