This is another of my favourite cake recipe passed down to me. Although I have made a few changes, still the result is undeniably impressive! I describe this cake as my ray of sunshine. This tastes home and reminds me always of my mom’s contagious smile. This is an incredibly moist, divine cake infused with a tasty orange juice flavour that no one can say no to!
Ingredients
3/4 c. vegetable oil
4 large eggs
1 (3.4 oz.) box instant lemon pudding mix
3/4 c. orange juice
1 (15.25 oz.) box yellow cake mix (I always opt for Betty Crocker or Pillsbury)
Glaze:
3/4 c. orange juice
4 tbsp unsalted butter
2 c. powdered sugar
How to make Orange Juice Cake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Grease, then flour a 10 to 12-cup bundt pan.
Step 2: Place the cake mix, pudding mix, vegetable oil, orange juice, and eggs in a large bowl. Mix everything using an electric mixer for about 2 minutes. Into the prepared pan, pour the cake mix. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean and the cake is just beginning to pull away from the sides of the pan. Remove the cake from the oven when done and let it cool in the pan.
Step 3: In the meantime, mix and cook the powdered sugar, orange juice, and butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until the butter has melted. Make sure to stir the glaze often.
Step 4: Poke holes in the cake using a skewer, then pour the warm glaze over the cake while it is still in the pan. Let the glaze cool for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the cake is cool and absorb most of the glaze.
Step 5: Onto a serving platter, invert the cake and let it cool fully (takes about 5 hours) before serving. Enjoy!
