Hawaiian Cake

Cake:

1 pkg. golden butter cake mix (white cake mix is fine too)

1 can mandarin oranges with syrup (small can)

4 whole eggs

1/2 C. vegetable oil


Frosting:

1 lg. container Cool Whip

1 lg. pkg. instant vanilla pudding

1 can (15 oz.) pineapple, crushed with syrup


Cake:

Beat all ingredients with beater all at once until mixed well. Pour into prepared greased and floured pans.

Bake at 350 until layers rise, and then cut temp to 325. Bake until layer springs back and inserted toothpick comes out clean. Time will be similar to time on back of cake mix.


Frosting:

Mix all ingredients with spoon only. Frost cooled cake and keep refrigerated.


(The cake pictured above was made with 6 cake mixes, and a triple batch of the frosting. It was HUGE! and oh, so, delicious.)

yum! thanks linda. everyone enjoyed this. we did a single batch with a yellow cake mix. in addition, we used 12 ounces of cool whip, but 8 would have been fine. AND we think that coconut would be an awesome addition to the icing.
