Incredibly Cool and Refreshing Mandarin Orange Cake image

This is sooooo refreshing on a hot day and is the perfect ending to a BBQ (or any) meal. Everyone who has ever tried this has raved about it. It is so yummy and light and does not last a day in our house! If you do have any left, store it in the refrigerator. (Cooling time is not added to the prep or cook times.)

Time 45m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (18 1/2 ounce) package yellow cake mix
4 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed (Cool Whip or store brand)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch pan (I use a pyrex baking pan so I can serve the cake right in the pan).
  • In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil and ONE can of oranges with juice.
  • Mix by hand or with mixer until smooth (you will still see bits of oranges).
  • Pour into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes or until thin steak knife inserted in center come out clean.
  • Allow to cool completely on rack.
  • In a large bowl, mix whipped topping, the other can of mandarin oranges with juice and dry pudding mix until well combined and smooth.
  • Spread on cooled cake.
