If you want to make cake but are squeezed for time, count on this recipe for a fast solution.—Charlene Wahlenmaier, Grants Pass, Oregon
Ingredients:
1 package white cake mix (regular size)
2 eggs
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, undrained
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, applesauce and oranges. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds; beat on medium for 2 minutes.
2. Pour into two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 325° for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
3. In another bowl, beat whipped topping, pineapple and pudding mix. Spread between layers and over top and sides of cake. Chill. Yield: 12 servings.
