Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix
- 1 can (11 ounces) canned mandarin oranges (with juice)
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 can (20 ounces) canned crushed pineapple (in juice)
- 1 box (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 container (8 ounces) Cool Whip (thawed)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish or spray it with nonstick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, mandarin oranges (with juice), eggs, and vegetable oil. Using an electric mixer, beat the ingredients on medium speed until well combined and the oranges are slightly broken apart.
Step 3
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 5
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack.
Step 6
While the cake cools, prepare the frosting. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed pineapple (with juice), instant vanilla pudding mix, and Cool Whip. Stir gently until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the frosting is smooth.
Step 7
Once the cake is completely cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top of the cake.
Step 8
Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the frosting to set.
Step 9
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Pig Lickin' Cake!
