  • 1 16 ounce pound cake mix. (Eg: Betty Crocker)
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of orange juice
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup of milk
  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • 1 15-ounce can of mandarin oranges (drained)
  • 3/4 cup of powdered sugar
  • zest of 1 medium to large orange (grated)
 
Preheat your oven to 350 Farenheit or equivalent

Mix in a bowl: 1/2 cup of the orange juice, eggs, milk, butter, and the cake mix. mix until light and fluffy. about 2 minutes on medium speed.

Using a spatula, fold in the drained orange segments so they are evenly dispersed.

Pour the batter into a greased and floured bundt pan. Bake for about 45 minutes.

Take out of oven and let it cool for about 15 -20 minutes before you try to invert the pan to get the cake out. Use a small rubber spatula around the edges to loosen it a bit so it will come out easier.

Once you get it out of the pan let it cool completely on a wire rack and then transfer to your serving plate.

Then, mix the powdered sugar, the orange peel zest, and the 2 tablespoons of orange juice; be sure to mix it thoroughly. Drizzle this mixture over the cake. Allow the mixture to set before serving.
