Indulge in the tropical flavors of this Tasty Mandarin Orange Pineapple Cake! A delightful dessert that combines the zesty citrus notes of mandarin oranges with the sweet, juicy taste of pineapple, all nestled in a light and fluffy cake.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 box Duncan Hines Butter Cake mix
  • 1/2 cup Wesson oil
  • 1 11-ounce can mandarin oranges, with juice
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs

For the Icing:

  • 1 12-ounce tub of Cool Whip
  • 1 small package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 16-ounce can crushed pineapple, drained (reserve juice for thinning icing if needed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, oil, mandarin oranges with their juice, sugar, and eggs. Mix at medium speed for 2 minutes until well blended.
  2. Bake: Grease, flour, and line three round cake pans with wax paper. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the center of the cake springs back when touched. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely on cooling racks.
  3. Make the Icing: In a bowl, mix the drained crushed pineapple with the instant vanilla pudding mix. Fold in the Cool Whip until smooth. If the icing is too thick, thin it slightly with the reserved pineapple juice.
  4. Assemble the Cake: Once the cakes are completely cooled, frost each layer and the outside of the cake with the pineapple and Cool Whip icing.
  5. Chill and Serve: Store the frosted cake in the refrigerator. This cake is said to be even better the next day, making it perfect for preparing in advance.
