Orange Dreamsicle Cake

ORANGE DREAMSICLE CAKE

(makes you dream of summer!)

Ingredients:

1 Pkg Yellow Cake Mix

2 Pks Orange Jell-O

1 Pk Vanilla Instant Pudding

1 Cup 2% Milk

2 Tsp Vanilla

1 Tub Cool Whip

Directions:

Bake the cake as directed in a 9x13" pan. Let cake cool completely. Poke holes in cooled cake. Mix 1 package orange gelatin dessert with 1 c. boiling water and 1 c. cold water. Pour over cake. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours. Mix pudding mix with cold milk the other package of orange gelatin dessert and vanilla. Beat by hand with a whisk until thickened. Fold in the whipped topping. Frost the cake with the pudding mixture. These instructions will make a single layered amazing cake that is delicous!

PLEASE NOTE: To get the layered look as in this particular picture - make your cakes in well greased and floured pans - follow baking instructions. I then tip then out onto cooling rack and invert back onto a cookie sheet. Proceed to poke holes and do the jello thing and refrigerate (or put out on the cold enclosed back porch as we do). It is a little tricky to get the layers - but I love our pan lifters to help with this process. (most people use these to take pizza off their grills, but I use it a lot for cakes)! 

Enjoy! And remember - if your first time doesn't come out looking quite so perfect -- it will still taste amazing!!!
