    ck

    List of Ingredients




    1 box yellow cake mix
    ½ c. Oil
    4 eggs
    1 sm. Can mandarin plus juice

    (Frosting)

    1 sm. can mandarin oranges, drained and crushed in processor
    1 sm. Pkg. Vanilla instant pudding

    1 8 oz. Cool Whip***

    Directions for cake

    Mix all ingredients and beat for 2 minutes. Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 38 minutes, or until tested done. Cool completely on wire rack.

    Frosting:

    Mix the thawed cool whip with the pudding and crushed mandarin orange slices. Mix completely. Put on cooled cake. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

    *** For those like me who do not like Cool Whip, take 16 oz. heavy cream and whip in Kitchen Aid. Add the pudding and mandarin oranges.

    Recipe



    OK...here's the variation:

    for the cake:
    same as before, but
    use a devils food cake mix in place of yellow
    1/2 bag frozen blackberries in place of oranges

    for the frosting

    use chocolate pudding mix instead of vanilla
    use the other half bag of blackberries in place of the oranges, but put them in the processor and chop slightly.
